Message: <blockquote data-quote="Monte At Home" data-source="post: 948240" data-attributes="member: 1335">No offense taken. If I was under the illusion that my products would sell as well without the WotC logo on them as they do with it on them, I'd have been disabused of that notion long ago. But also, I don't want to dent D&D. My products, my whole company, is about supporting D&D. Arcana Unearthed isn't about taking customers away from WotC (if it was, I would have created a whole new game system).Actually, as I understand it, they are. And for what it's worth, they're taking extra steps to make their products also easily compatible with regular D&D.And, for what it's worth, I don't care about fragmenting the publishers. Publishers can do whatever they want. (In fact, as a total aside, I'm guessing there's room for one savvy publisher to carve out a niche for themselves putting out 3.0 compatible products rather than 3.5, going forward--but probably only one.) I don't want to fragment the audience.  I guess that's the crux of it. AU isn't about change, it's about an alternative. If people are happy with their current game, they drop a runethane into D&D just as easily as one of Steve Kenson's excellent shamans. AU can just supplement your existing D&D game, or it can be a whole new thing. I know you said that we "can't have it both ways," but I hope that you'll see when Arcana Unearthed comes out that indeed we can.But whatever. It seems that we all just keep saying the same thing post after post. ByronD, your recent two posts seem to indicate that I can't speak truthfully or fairly about 3.5 because I'm working on AU, but that isn't going to mean I'm not going to talk about 3.5. (I don't see 3.5 as competition, maybe that's what's tripping us up.) Let's just agree to disagree.</blockquote>
