[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 9435154, member: 6801845"] I don't care about what could happen because it hasn't happened, isn't likely to happen and if it did happen I don't have to support it. I don't subscribe to Disney+/Hulu any more because it wasn't worth my money. I never subscribed to Max because as much as people rave about shows like GoT, it's just not worth my money. Same with any subscription to DDB or hypothetical VTT. If at any point I don't find the online tools worth my money I'll drop my subscription and go back to pen and paper like I did for decades. Assuming that the nebulous something bad occurs that you can never quantify. I'm no more concerned about losing access to online books than I am about losing physical copy of books. I'm no more worried about being lulled into complacency as WotC attaches a vacuum cleaner to my wallet than I am about them sending Pinkertons to repossess my books. By the way I spent $60 for my DDB subscription last year. If I shared costs with my players that would be less than $5 per year each (I run multiple groups). While I did preorder the new books, my only other expense for the year was the [I]Tome of Beasts 1 [/I]from Kobold press. In 2022 I spent $40 for things other than my subscription. I do not spend "hundreds of dollars" on DDB every year. [/QUOTE]
