[QUOTE="JRich, post: 9183765, member: 7043485"] Sure, but, under your scenario, I’m ultimately not going to be paying anybody to make me that good Ethiopian food. It’s the paying of the money in exchange for a product that creates the expectation that that product will be of a certain level of quality roughly in line with the price that I am paying for it. If the product paid for doesn’t roughly match that anticipated level of quality, I think it’s entirely reasonable for me to be dissatisfied and not reasonable to be told, “you have no grounds to be unhappy or dissatisfied because you can just go ahead and produce or improve that product yourself”. No, I paid you to provide a quality product. Now, with all of that being said, I AM one who does tinker with gaming products, but it’s around the edges. To continue the food analogy, I think it is reasonable to expect me to say, for example, “no cheese, easy on the spice, or heavy on the spice,” etc. or for me to put salt or pepper on it to my tastes, etc. However, selling me a product (food or rpg) that requires me to do much more than that (figuratively when it comes to rpgs) before the product is of reasonable quality is reasonable grounds for dissatisfaction on my part.
