[QUOTE="Imaro, post: 3847539, member: 48965"] Just wanted to comment on these two statements. I am not jumping to any conclusions... at least not anymore than those who are viewing the books in a positive light with the limited information available. Now, I'm not one of the people claiming WotC lied to us about 4th ed. being in the works, but the way this was handled has caused me to have a bad gut feeling when straight answers aren't forth coming. It's my personal view and in no way am I saying anyone else has to share it or are wrong for having a counter view. How are either of these posts neutral on the matter? You look at his silence in a favorable light and I don't...but I'm not saying your wrong for this, just don't expect me to auto-subscribe to your views without evidence from Mr. Rouse. Personally I don't want an ad blurb, I want him to post what is in the books(in a general manner) and why he feels the product he is promoting is a good buy. I'm not asking for the 4th ed. rules or anything of that magnitude. If the fact that I see an inability to present a product you are selling in a open and positive way as a negative...then fine I guess I am negative. Though I would more so say wary. Like I said earlier, I have seen people under the assumption that these books will contain a number of different things (and honestly the blurb is less than enlightening), some of whom may be purchasing (as in pre-ordering) the book under false assumptions. Now one could argue it's their own fault for not finding out more about the product...but if the questions have been asked and no answer forthcoming( so far) then it rests on both the shoulders of the consumer and the company when/if these same consumers cry bloody murder when the book is nothing like what they thought it was. IMHO the quicker you inform your consumer the less chance there is of this happening. [/QUOTE]
