[QUOTE="Doc_Klueless, post: 6765407, member: 261"] But they're giving me exactly what I want and I'm a customer. So they're giving customers actually what they want. They're not giving ALL the customers exactly what they want, but NO business does that. That's an impossible standard. The real questions are: Are they giving the majority of the customers what they want? Could they gain more customers by doing something different? Would the results be worth the expense? Having never published a RPG nor run a multi-million dollar company and not having access to data to make an informed decision, I don't know the answers to these questions. I'm just really happy with what WotC is doing. For example, even though I've been playing and running games for 30+ years I'm definitely the target audience for SCAG. Simply because I've avoided running in the Realms because there is so... much... information. Having a smaller guide that I have handed to my players and said: This is the Lore for the Campaign has greatly reduced my anxiety over running the Realms. Even with a couple of players who know so much more about the Realms than I do because we've all agreed on that caveat. For the first time since it was published, I'm running a Realms game and it's going very, very well. [/QUOTE]
