[QUOTE="Ulrick, post: 67874, member: 775"] Mostly Miss. I've checked out a couple d20 online magazines but they just seem to have stuff the simply doesn't interest me. I occasionally pick up Dungeon Magazine after I've flipped through it to see if I could use something in it. Even then I like the ideas it can generate, and I do use the adventures within on occasion. As for Polyhedron, I despise it and the RPGA horse it road in on. I can't believe I waited six months from when I signed up before I cancelled my membership--at least I got my money back. I didn't get one issue--at all, even when it combine with Dungeon. I bought the January issue of Dungeon/Polyhedron--looked at Dungeon--liked it; looked at Polyhedron and wondered what happened to the fantastic magazine I'd heard about. I've still maintained my subscription to Dragon Magazine, but I'm not certain why. It's really strange, I don't know what to think of Dragon anymore. I remember when I first started buying Dragon around issue #200, back then it seemed like the Magazine had a lot of "crunchy" bits. Sure, every now and then the magazine had some bad issues but overall I was fairly satisfied. Then just before 3e came out...the magazine went to crap. I was going to let the subscription run out. But the magazine became good again. It seems like it has its ups and downs. And everytime it goes down and I no longer want the magazine it goes up. I think the main reason why I kept my subscription was I found out that the LGCJ was going to be included. I am a Greyhawk Fan, and I thought the articles on Death Knights were fantastic. But yet I'd rather just get LGCJ by itself. It's just not fair :( From my observation, it seems like d20 magazines are suffering from too much quantity and lack of quality. Ulrick [/QUOTE]
