[QUOTE="Selkirk, post: 6420590, member: 6775377"] why would lack of communication be a good strategy? or worse yet 'understandable'? they could just do things like tell the truth. 'we put all our eggs in one basket...that failed...this is what we are working on now'. if people want to hate for telling the truth then that's the way it is. but wotc hasn't said anything about anything...they don't communicate at all. no blogs, nothing on website. the game was launched with numerous declarations that they wanted to capture a big audience (gamers, 'non geeks' etc...)...guess what those people don't buy 50 dollar books. but they do buy apps. wotc failed on digital...blown opportunity. but still they haven't blown it completely...start fresh and be honest and open. embrace digital (i mean the grogs are gonna buy the print books) . it isn't unusual to see people with tablets these days :D. some of them might like digital char sheets/content. this quote from another forum :heh: is spot on...(rpg net [URL]http://forum.rpg.net/showthread.php?740929-DungeonScape-s-Current-Form-is-Dead/page2[/URL] ) [COLOR=#333333][FONT=Verdana]'I suspect the issue has less to do with not taking digital utilities seriously and more to do with WotC, as an organisation, having a fundamentally dysfunctional approach to project management.[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#333333][FONT=Verdana](To be fair, in my experience, [/FONT][/COLOR][B]most tabletop RPG publishers have a fundamentally dysfunctional approach to project management.
