So far, this DDI thing seems to be headed in a ridiculous direction. One that will not just keep me away, but set a seriously negative mind-set.
Dungeon and Dragon should be divorced from the rest of the DDI. A face-to-face PNP-only group gets zero value from the other online tools, and paying for what you aren't using is a waste of money.
Both e-zines should be available as downloadable PDFs (w/a personalized watermark). If I buy it, it's MINE and should be in MY possession. The thought that it might only be available online, requiring access to their website to view it... is an affront.
As for the rest, paying extra to "rent" bits, that in any other computer-game are included, is an insult. And this random virtual mini concept goes beyond the pale; it's a blatent slap in the face. There is NO excuse for randomizing that which has no continued production/distribution costs. This is bald-faced hoodwinking of extra revenue from consumers.
