[QUOTE="catsclaw227, post: 3838922, member: 14197"] I agree with these statements. If there is one major concern I have about this whole 4e thing it is the timing of 3rd party support. I am probably an extreme example of the normal D&D DM/buyer in that I buy a LOT of books and PDFs from third party publishers, and often times I have reluctantly paid for both for the same product. One thing I would like to know is if other third party publishers will also take on a subscription model like Paizo where if they buy the print product in subscription mode they get the PDF for free, or if they buy the print book from their FLGS or online store, if they can buy the PDF for a nominal cost, like WOTC is presumably doing for 4e books. I use both PDF and Print; PDF for my in-game sessions, print for planning and reading on the sofa. I furiously cut and paste for my players, and I use as much of the visual aids from the products in game. (Which BTW, presumes that art should be contextual, not just random filler pieces). I buy from and supported Paizo, Necro, Green Ronin, Goodman, Paradigm, Ronin Arts, Malhavoc, Troll Lords, Monkeygod, Bad Axe, AEG, Fiery Dragon, EN Publishing, Atlas, FFG, Inner Circle, Mongoose, XRP, and closed/defunt rpg publishers Bastion and Mystic Eye. WOTC, PLEASE SUPPORT THE 3RD PARTY MARKET SOON!!!! It makes me want to buy more of YOUR product, if 3rd party publishers can use it as well. This begs the question about whether the OGL will provide that all print product mechanics from WOTC will become open content (except maybe campaign worlds). my 2cp. [/QUOTE]
