Class Compendium: Gone?

[mach1.9pants]

Ah well, it will save me some money (rampant completionist speaking)

 

[Mercurius]

Maybe.

Can it also explain why the "Mordenkainen's Magnificent Emporium" listing has also been deleted from WotC's own online product catalog?

Can it also explain why the "Player's Option: Champions of the Heroic Tier" book has been removed from amazon.com's listings?

True, true. One would think that WotC would offer some communication about this, but afaik they never said anything about the annihilation of the Nentir Vale Gazetteer so I don't have high hopes.

Wow. It seems to me that the D&D product line is seriously spinning out of control at the moment. Does anyone know what the plan to develop the product line actually is, this year? I'd kind of like to know...

I wonder who is running the show at the moment, because these developments don't seem like something that Mearls and company would be involved with. Color me extremely confused, and more than a little worried.

Bill Slaviscek is the current Evil Overlord, so let's blame him. But yeah, I agree - it seems that 4E is kind of a rudderless ship right now. Let's hope that these "snafus" are merely the harbingers of something Cool! and Fun!!! Or, at the least, 5th edition.

Bill Slavicsek does not do communication.

He really needs to study Matthew Sprange's responses to Mongoose stuff-ups.

This year, Wizards of the Coast decided to lay off products, instead of employees. It's an exciting change to their usual seasonal activities.

Actually, my bet is that this content is still coming, but is now pulled into a digital only form. We can only guess what that will be.

On the bright side, it's a great way to get Amazon Super Saver shipping. Just toss any item into your cart, then pad up to more than $25.00 by adding a now deleted item. Instant free shipping.

But... what if I want that deleted item? Will it sit there on my order, mocking me? Forever taunting me with "what might have been"? Will this immortalize what I wanted but never got?

I really have absolutely no idea what wizards are doing at the moment with DnD. Their release schedule has gone utterly to hell since essentials and DDI has slipped pretty badly in recent months.

I have plenty to work with in terms of stuff, but I am feeling very unenthusiastic about 2011 so far as I have no idea what they are actually doing anymore. Considering I'm the sort who buys everything that is released in general, this is not good for Wizards.

 

[UngeheuerLich]

Seriously concerned, as those were books i was looking forward to.

 

[JoeGKushner]

Color me curious. Can't work up the energy to get annoyed at this sort of thing anymore. The whole DDI thing ate it up so now it's mild interest until WoTC decides which way their moving again.

I'm looking forward to the Essential Player's Handbook!

 

[UngeheuerLich]

It is the advanced players handbook
