It's okay to be disappointed that SCAG isn't what you wanted, but my feeling is that a review should take into account what the product is, not what you wanted the product to be.It's like giving breakfast a 'meh' review because you had to pay extra for the bacon. That's a good thing to point out, but the question isn't whether or not the bacon should be free -- it's whether or not the bacon is good enough to be worth the extra cost.Looking at only the reviews that give substantive reasons for their review (and ignoring the ones that say things like 'too much fluff' as their entire review), the product should be trending much closer to 80%, which would put it in the neighborhood of Rise of Tiamat.--Pauper</blockquote>
