[QUOTE="Shealladh, post: 3816998, member: 20970"] Well if you read all the information and listen to the WotC interviews, you can basically. Now basically meaning that if you want all the content and features you MUST have an internet connection. You cannot play via LAN as far as I know, so what is the point of this system if you must have a cable hanging out the back of your book??? What they're doing is forcing you to connect and waste tons of paper in printing everything out again until it becomes available in a book. They should be looking at other techniques to allow for an update via the internet, yet allow for us to play WITH ALL the information. Furthermore, how does one need an internet connection to use their online part, beats me and is useless. As it stands we can already do what they are updating for 4e anyway, you just have to scan and edit all the friggin books. So how is this moving forward, I would like you to answer that one. Yes good changes are always welcome, but this is a sorry excuse to DICTATE how all our information is used. I bet you the first person to make a plugin to allow for custom content and to enable our stuff to be loaded into the software, will be issued with a "Cease" order....Now I have seen this happen too many times from the WotC BS machine. I will say again, pathetic and useless. Now if Wotc and Hasbro split, sacked Atari and gave the license to a better publisher and found another maker for the game license. Now that would be sweet, yet I doubt that will happen in my life time so as I said...GoodBye [/QUOTE]
