[QUOTE="IanB, post: 3464142, member: 1473"] Here's the thing for me. I'm not going to point fingers and call WotC greedy or evil or any of those things, because I don't think it is true. I've met a number of WotC folks in the last couple years and they're great people. I don't really harbor them any ill-will. What I hate most about this is it is trading a known good quality product, for an unknown. Dungeon has been fantastic for the last few years, and is a great value. We're going from that, to something from WotC that *could* be great, or could just as easily die without the right kind of support (and honestly their history with their website on the D&D side doesn't make me super optimistic - they've done a good job with the MtG side of things, so maybe there's hope there.) I also feel terrible for Paizo, who have been doing a fantastic job, and are now going to be stuck without access to all that great non-SRD stuff they've been using until now. Paizo is the only non-WotC company (besides some Goodman and Monte Cook stuff) that I really considered up to the same quality level as WotC's own offerings, and I fear what is going to happen now that they have lost their competitive advantage as far as being able to use MM2-4, the Complete books, etc. [/QUOTE]
