[QUOTE="Nightfall, post: 170669, member: 374"] Well I honestly told myself "Self: Stay out of it." "Other Self: Oh but I REALLY want to! I think I deserve to!" "Self: No, no, our LG tentancies should outway any personal feelings we have" "Other Self: "Since when have we been LG?" "Self: *long dramatic pause* "Okay you win!" So here's my other self speaking. Personally I don't give a rat's ass about the money I spend. My needs and concerns about what I buy are DETAILED by two main factors "Will I like it?" "Will I use it?" If those to criteria are met, I'm happy. Now on to pricing. WotC pricing sucks. I'm supposed to shell out 40 dollars for ONE hardback that MAYBE, if I'm lucky, will get 10% of my use.
