[QUOTE="Ogrork the Mighty, post: 3620921, member: 19042"] I think the problem with [I]Pathfinder [/I]will be the price. Over the long term that is. Paying around $17-18 each month adds up. And if you don't like a particular issue, you might start second-guessing the purchase. I foresee a whole whack of people subscribing and then a gradual dropoff in subscriptions as people decide to buy it at their local hobby shop (if they can find it) instead. Note that I'm not saying anything at all about the quality. The quality could be amazing, but I just think it's a high price point to be paying on a monthly basis. And it's also not an "official" WotC product. I know a lot of people don't care, but even more people do (for whatever reason) and that will definitely impact sales. As for the "it's a book not a magazine" issue, [I]Pathfinder [/I]comes out on a monthly basis, has a subscription plan, and replaces Dungeon magazine. Despite the formatting differences, it it walks like a duck and squawks like a duck... [/QUOTE]
