[QUOTE="mxyzplk, post: 6208246, member: 16450"] Sure. But releasing day 1 with some errors versus releasing months later without them - here's a little business sense quiz, which one is way, way, way better for sales? (Especially when electronic products can be cleaned up easily and people are fairly tolerant of online errata even for print ones?) People put out like 500 3pp monster books for 3e. I own one - the Sword & Sorcery one. Because they were there first. Green Ronin went from basically nothing to a large thriving company on the back of its d20 adventures, starting with launch. (Well, I think I do have Creatures of Freeport somewhere, that counts as a second monster book.) As in other venues, fortune favors the bold. Anyone with a product in hand at Gen Con for launch will outsell all others that the hand-wringers provide "late but 100% rules correct" over the next year. That's just business in a new market, it shouldn't be news to anyone. [/QUOTE]
