[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 8830073, member: 6801845"] Good grief. Of course WOTC wants to make money. That's what companies do. It's how they pay the salaries of people who write the books, how they pay for their servers that host the (as yet to be revealed VTT), pay for the electricity to keep the lights on. If and when they release a VTT, no one is going to force you to use it. We have no idea what the pricing structure will be, how it will work, what it will charge for. Other VTTs will still exist if it's too expensive, there will still be competition. Your physical books will not suddenly refuse to open unless you put a quarter in the slot. D&D remains one of the cheapest hobbies you can have and has given me more entertainment per dollar than most forms of entertainment. Except for good ol' dirt of course. ;) This probably could have been handled better, but is it any surprise that having bought DndBeyond that they're moving all of their web presence to that site?
