[QUOTE="exile, post: 6343956, member: 20068"] Speaking for myself (so only anecdotally), I think they should make Expeditions available for home play because that episodic style of play works well for me. Like a lot of people my age, I have a pretty demanding schedule. I play when and where I can. Sometimes I drive 1-2 hours to a store; I go to quite a few cons; I invite friends over to my house (from several hours away). On average, I get in about one good weekend of gaming per month, but it is not always with the same group. PFS works great for me (as did LFR). Ongoing campaigns like Paizo's APs (and I suspect the what's it what's it Dragon Queen) work less well. My friends who all live closer together than they live to me can play those together, but if I drop in I'm a guest star at best, a disruption to continuity at worst. So yeah, part of it is just me whining because it is something that I want to do, and the current rules make it difficult. But here are a few kickers... I have disposable income. I can walk into a game store and spend a lot more money than most any of the kids that live there. I have full collections of Paizo product, 4e product, and lots of other gaming product. I have already bought the 5e starter set, and I will buy some more 5e product, but I probably won't support 5e in the same way i support Pathfinder (I have already consciously bypassed a set of minis) or the same way i supported 4e. This isn't because I am a vindictive person or because I hate 5e. In fact, I kind of like what I have seen so far; I have even tried to sell it to friends who remain staunch 4e supporters (with no luck yet). The truth is this, I won't fully be supporting 5e because they have created an organized play system (my favorite type of play) that makes my participation difficult. [/QUOTE]
