[QUOTE="Scribble, post: 4329180, member: 23977"] I dissagree with you, as I think it's usefull. Because I want to see if there's a ritual premade for me to use for something? maybe it's something I want to ut in the game as a reward, or as a fun thing. maybe I just want to see a list of rituals available. maybe because someone sent me an email asking how a ritual worked? Maybe because I want to put a ritual in that my players can get access to, but I want to see if it's lready been done because why spend time re-inventing the wheel??? Who knows! The point is I can see myself wanting to have a list of rituals, and I can see myself using a searchable index of the above. Furthermore, the point is an index of things spanning multiple sources is useful to me, and to others as well based on the amount of "We need a dragon index" posts / and letters to the editor I've seen. A searchable index with other added features, and one that lets me not have to even have the bnooks on me??? Even better! take what you're given and work with it. Or constuctively critisize it. Don't take waht you have and immediately pronounce the end of all days and utter ruin and horror which is what I see from a lot of people lately. it's pointless to do that except to sound off. It seems like you're taking this DDI thing WAY too personally. If you want other features say so, but don't call someone names because they dissagree with you. For the first time I might use my ignore list, if you can't post without insulting someone who dissagrees with you. Again I say, I hope the encounter builder is still part of the deal. I'm indicating that an encounter builder would be something as a DM I'm interested in, and it would entice me to pay money to have it. if it's not there, I would be less enticed to pay money for the DDI service. At the end of the day, however, I purchase things based on what I'm being sold. I don't HAVE to buy DDI. If I feel, when they start charging for it, that it's not worth my money then I won't buy it! I'm not going to sit here and whine about it. I just won't buy it! I also won't begrudge someone for buying it because they find the things the DDI offers to be useful. Great so you're a cynic? I'm not. If your example proves true, it would be less incentive for me to buy it? You act like WoTC somehow is forcing you to buy this thing! Yes, because sometimes I need to find this info when I'm not building a character. Also character builders are diferent then indexes. A character buider will probably work in stages. Pick race, pick class, choose powers. whereas an index is an overview of everything available. I don't know? I'm not on WoTC's DDI team. I'm an end user. If it returns, I'll be happy, and it wil be something I'll be interested in buying. They're not asking me to throw down money blindly and see what happens... It's not a bet, it's not a stock. It's a product. If when the time comes I don't like the product, again, I won't buy it! [/QUOTE]
