[QUOTE="Thornir Alekeg, post: 3840856, member: 15651"] One thing that has to always be kept in mind is that things have to be different simply [i]because[/i] WotC is the 800 pound gorilla. They are a division of a publicly traded company, so they have to be a little more careful about what they say than Paizo, Green Ronin and others. When you hear from Paizo, Green Ronin and others, you usually only hear from a couple of people at each of those place, mostly because they are smaller companies. WotC with its larger staff has a liitle more difficulty speaking with "one voice." I would guess the result of that is how and what they are going to communicate may be discussed a little more formally than the smaller companies, with the drawback that some of those communications can sound forced or sanitized. Overall I'm pretty happy with the communications from WotC staff so far. People need to remember that things are different now. With the internet and forums such as EN World and Gleemax, many people have become accustomed to the immediacy of information, and when they don't get it, they start to feel something is wrong.
