[QUOTE="Khairn, post: 3707279, member: 20153"] WotC has stated that the DDI will not be required to play. But what is WotC's definition of "required"? The impression I get is that both 4E and the DDI will be so intimately woven into one another that having just the book alone will be like buying a car, but not having any seats in it. Sure, the car gets you from point A to B, (so it is a car) buts its certainly more comfortable and enjoyable to have some place to sit. (seats aren't really required, are they?) Part of the problem in resolving this issue is that until we see the final product we have no way of determining whether what's in the DDI is really "required" for you. What I believe to be a required peice of information may be very different from you think is required. Hell ... there was a big arguement on the WotC boards because WotC claimed that the definition of a "download" was too vague and therefore because of that they wouldn't be sharing any information about how we were going to be able to get content on our computer when we weren't on the net. And with WotC's track record of word manipulation, I'm not sure if I can really trust anything they claim. [/QUOTE]
