[QUOTE="Davelozzi, post: 3466967, member: 771"] I've only read 5 pages of this thread, and though I would love to keep going, I do have to get back to work. That said, I did want to chime in to say that I think this is a huge mistake on WotC's part. [i]Dragon[/i] and [i]Dungeon[/i] are huge factors in keeping me interested in Dungeons & Dragons even during periods like now when life is too busy to be actively participating in regular games. There is no way I will devote my time and money to reading anywhere near this level of material online. Having to waste ink printing, then having a bunch of loose piles of paper -- no way. The convenience of a bound magazine that I can take with me and read on the train or wherever just does not compare to having access to similar sorts of content online. I have the utmost respect for Paizo as a company and have transferred the balance of my subscription over to [i]Pathfinder[/i] as I definitely feel like these guys deserve my support enough to give it a chance. Erik, James and all the crew at Paizo are class acts, and have done an astounding job with these magazines in the time that they have been at the helm. That said, the concerns about less material for a much higher price do not go unnoticed, so only time will tell if I continue to subscribe over the long term. I understand the differences between book and magazine pricing, and the that there won't be ads, but I would still have greatly preferred it had they opted to continue the magazines in a similar format with OGL material instead of switching over to books. I love the adventure paths, but I will miss the variety of having three separate short adventures for differing levels each month. Shorter adventures work much better for my group, which has a hard enough time getting together even monthly, meaning a long adventure can take us 6-9 months to finish. As others have said, this sad news hits me harder than I would've thought the cancellation of a magazine could do. Best of luck to everyone at Paizo, I truly hope that this end of an era also marks the beginning of a bright new one for them...and for us as fans. [/QUOTE]
