[QUOTE="the Lorax, post: 3482961, member: 27662"] Ok, first - Morrus. Thanks for whipping the cries of an angry mob into something coherent. Most appreciated. Second, Scott Rouse, Chris Perkins & Bill Slavicsek. Thank you for taking time out to answer some of the concerns of the online community. I'm sure that many other will bring up that they would've liked to have recieved SOMETHING about the new DI - even if there was only links to concept sketchs of the opening page or some such. Clearly regular previews of D&D minis keeps people excited and interested in the miniatures side of things. Some eye candy of some sort would be a nice way to introduce the DI. I applaud your efforts to allow Paizo to utilize this time and not distract from the final issues of Dragon and Dungeon nor distract from the announcement of the Pathfinder series. I'd like to comment on this - Hope for, exciting and useful? Well off the top of my head - [list]Completely searchable[/list] [list]Include a variety of online tools to speed play or reduce preparation workload[/list] [list]Usable as I see fit - any type of DRM quickly becomes a deal breaker[/list] [list]Similar or better quality content to what Dungeon and Dragon have been providing - just more of it[/list] [list]Adventures that update and scale automaticly based upon my input of character level[/list] [list]Perpetual access to material I've already paid for[/list] [list]Access to content even when not online[/list] [list]Reviews of gaming related products[/list] [list]Hyperlinks galore[/list] [list]Digital versions of maps - including maps without location keys - that can be printed and used as a map on my table[/list] [list]Direct links to message board topics - such as how individual posters used the content[/list] [list]Active/live editing - if there are errors in the content, they should be corrected - and the corrected version should be what is available [/list] How much content have I been able to use? That's hard to say. Some issues of Dungon have had zero adventures I have wanted to use. Some I've used every one, heck I have a couple that I've used as backdrop for my campaign - as in "News from the other side of the kingdom - Druids attacked and overran a border fort" Dragon is even harder to measure. Reading new ideas, even those I dont use, keeps me excited about this hobby. Often a small portion of an article will spark some idea of my own. How much work did you have to do to accomplish that? Tools that allow easy modification to an adventure would be amazing. If I dont want an Illithid in an adventure because they dont exisist in my game, something that lets me easily swap it out in whatever format I bring to my table (print or on screen) would be amazing.
