[QUOTE="Wulf Ratbane, post: 2670578, member: 94"] Hrrrrm, I didn't know what was in the works when I wrote that. Things are a lot clearer to me now. For the record-- keeping in mind I'm behind the success of the venture-- the storefront seems to have stepped into the shoes that RPG Now just outgrew. 1) The storefront is ugly. I won't elaborate much on this-- compare it to DTRPG, to Paizo, to the new RPGnow-- or to the old RPGnow. 2) Good luck with Pick and Mix, but my impression (publisher hat off, customer hat on) is that the PnM offerings are going to be filled with a whole lot of chaff. For the sake of argument let's agree that Ronin Arts is the most successful, professional, and reliable producer of PDF content. I wouldn't pay 50 cents for a bit of orphaned crunch, not even from Phil Reed. You know? If it's a good idea, give me "A Dozen..." of them for a buck or two-- even if it means you have to put a little more time and effort into gathering those thoughts together. That's actually less risky to me, as a customer, than paying 50 cents for a single item. By making the price so low, and [i]especially[/i] by making the publisher's "barrier to entry" so low, I think you pretty much guarantee a whole lot of low quality offerings. I'm not saying that's true of ENP, Ronin Arts, The Le, etc. But it seems to be a format that's easily abused. 3) Please get rid of the automatic 3-star average rating. Anyhow... Here's to a successful launch! [/QUOTE]
