[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 2641917, member: 22779"] Yeah, exactly. But, instead of a single publication for the first time since 3.5 was released, how about a steady stream? I don't even mind too much if it was not commonly available to the public. That would be fine. I can see the reasons for not wanting to give stuff away for free. But, I think my idea would be a little easier to do than cranking out an entire book. Just a thought. One other thought. I've seen a couple of times that a d20 supported SRD would cause publishers to close up their books and stop making them OGC. I really have to ask, "So what?" I'm sorry, but, there has been so little cross pollination between publishers that the books might as well be entirely closed content anyway. As I look at the dozen or so Sword and Sorcery books, three AEG books, 2 Mystic Eye Games books, and a handful of .pdf's, I see pretty much zero content from other publishers within any of those books. Granted, my collection is hardly encompassing, but, you'd think out of two dozen or so publications, I would see at least ONE idea in a book from another publisher. Really, if Mongoose cranked out its next four books entirely closed content, what difference would it make? There's already almost zero cross pollination going on anyway. [/QUOTE]
