[QUOTE="Ninja-to, post: 5505240, member: 19551"] Gotta run out and will check on this later. However some quick additions. The point of my thread is just to say that we have all the technology sitting here, and has been for years, to run D&D so much better than we are at present. Wizards needs to find a way to allow players and DM's alike to sit down at a gaming table with a laptop and play as we always have. To me it's more paranoia than anything else that's keeping this from a reality. If people want to look at the books in the store, let them. Why not allow people to pay separately for a digital copy and a hard copy? That way nobody loses. I order my digital copy and tie it to my account. Once. Give the customers the choice. It's really not that difficult a concept. I'm not saying I'm boycotting. Boycotting assumes I'm mad at WotC for something they've done. I'm simply not buying books that are rushed to print before being properly fixed. I'm not asking for perfect. Just asking for a little higher standard. I think you hit the nail in the head when you said they're slowing down instead of rushing out products. That was my point. I didn't realize that was happening now. Maybe there will be less errata because of it. Despite the 123 pages argument, you also forget that these changes have occurred slowly over the years since release. This isn't a one shot deal. It's not like I bought my core books and only had to make one change. It's an ongoing thing and a nagging annoyance that is completely unnecessary. As I said all the books are in digital format on their computers. The work has been mostly done. Let me buy a copy digitally and stop worrying about me passing it out to others. All the books are and will forever be available to pirates. I don't mean sell random stuff. That's the opposite of what I was saying. Board games and children's books seems random to me. Why not produce more official D&D material that we can actually use that are non-book? Miniatures was a fair step, even though I don't buy them personally, but they seem to be making a profit off them. Gotta run. I'll have to try CB again later though I saw it on the weekend and didn't see any major improvements to the awful character sheets. Wasn't aware of the upcoming D&D movie. They've had them before. My point was, make them good. Get known talent attached with a real story. Hell, me and my players were talking about a TV series. Forgotten Realms as a TV series could be interesting if done right.
