Message: <blockquote data-quote="Razz" data-source="post: 2642823" data-attributes="member: 3014">My campaign is almost ALL of the WotC published books releases including Dragon Magazine subscriptions.Why?I am sorry, but I will not DM nor play in someone's campaign unless every option is presented, unless the variety of the game will keep everyone satisfied, unless something new comes out that could be useful for my game/character/monsters/NPC whatever!IMHO, those of you with just the 3 core books and a couple of others have boring campaigns in my eyes. The feats, spells, monsters, prestige classes all become horrible repetitive and eventually boring. SCENARIO:PLAYER 1: "Well what do you know! There's another...beholder! That's our 50th one! Alright...yay...this time with sorceror class levels...whoop dee doo *snore*"PLAYER 2: "You know, I saw some cool monsters I'd like to battle, like that Fiendwurm in Monster Manual 2, but our lazy, cheap DM won't buy it nor would he use it in his game even if we bought it."PLAYER 3: "You and me both. You know how long I've wanted my Sorceror to have a couple of neat spells for my character from Complete Arcane, and the Elemental Savant prestige class? I want him to be good at fire magic, but there's nothing in the PHB or the DMG that'll help me along that type of play style. I'm gonna get Complete Arcane and if DM won't let me use it, time for a new DM."PLAYER 4: "I'm going to...well...my turn undead is useless. Again. I wish there were other uses for turn undead. I sure could use the Dvine feats in Complete Divine."This is what you get when you don't implement more variety in your games. Now if you have simple-minded players, all the cheaper and better for DMs out there. But if you have players like mine that always want to see something new, exciting, and feel rewarded when the DM opens up BoED when they helped the celestial paragons unfoil a diabolical plot and they now have access to celestial magic and exalted feats well then HELL! Use new material for your player's sake!</blockquote>
