[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 6623374, member: 7006"] Perhaps. But then we counter that by the number of people who bought HotDQ [i]because[/i] it was one book with eight levels worth of adventures. Or will buy PoA because it's one book with an entire campaign in it, 13 to 15 levels of content. Add in the fact that you are buying all 13-15 levels of content regardless... as opposed to picking and choosing which bunches of 1-3 levels of content you'd pick up if the content was released in like five smaller adventures... who's to say which group is generating more money for WotC? I ain't gonna say it, cause I don't know. WotC might not even know completely, but I'm willing to bet they have a better idea than any of us. So I'm not willing to say one book with 15 levels of content will make them more or less money than 5 books of 3 levels of content. And anyone who thinks that their [i]preference[/i] of book model is the one that is the correct one for making WotC the most money in the long run is fooling themselves. You just want to give the impression that your preference are right so that WotC will agree with you and give you what you want. Even though you have absolutely no proof to that fact. [/QUOTE]
