I believe a slow and light product release can cause more harm in the long run.

[QUOTE="Harry Dresden, post: 6601426, member: 6793618"] I should have used the title as my opening but here goes anyway. I believe releasing products lightly and slowly is going to cause a lot of people to become extremely critical, angry, and a bit selfish. Let's think about it for a moment. Let's say you buy the three corebooks and you want to continue from there. Well the next product comes out and it's not something you are interested in. Okay no bother. I will just wait for the next one. Well next one comes out a few months later and it's not something you are interested in. Okay, keep calm and just be patient. Possibly one other product comes out that year! Still not somthing I am interested in. A whole year has gone by and nothing else I am interested in has come out and I am starting to get a bit annoyed. I begin really hanging on every word from Wizards because I am product starved. I hear they are doing great and yet I'm left with only the core three I started with. I hear they are only planning to release maybe two products a year and I'm left feeling like I bought into a product that isn't going to see much support. I hear about an MMO but I don't have time to play it and with what little free time I have, I would rather spend that playing some D&D at the table with my mates. Then I hear about this new Alice in Wonderland setting and I get start to get angry and feel a bit of selfishness come on because I hear they are on a limited release plan and instead of getting a setting I want, they are doing a setting I don't want which leaves me waiting even longer. I start to feel this strong urge to get what "I" want and not care of anyone else gets what they want. By this time I am hanging off a cliff here and I could go at any time. A few web articles come out and while they may put a little taste in my mouth, they are hardly enough to satisfy my hunger. Eventually I may get something two years later but by that time I am probably likely to have packed up and moved on to another system. [/QUOTE]
