I find it a bit frustrating that the distribution chain seems to be getting burned out on D20 System just as good stuff is finally starting to reliably appear. I've seen more D20 System stuff that sounds good to me announced for the next year than has appeared in the past 4 combined. And for me, too, it's precisely because things are deviating further from the D&D3E baseline. I don't need to buy minor variations of D&D--i'll just invent them myself. If i need a new feat for a character concept, i'll write it up. The further it is from something i already have, the more interesting it is to me.And here we see one of the economic factors that really frustrates me. WotC has the D&D name, so their sales are pretty much guaranteed. I honestly feel that if they had to play on the same field as everyone else (i.e., either they didn't have the D&D name, or anybody could use it), WotC'd actually be one of the companies cutting back production. Not failing, but definitely hurting: their products aren't crap, generally, but neither are they the cream of the crop. IMHO, they are consistently middle-of-the-pack.</blockquote>
