[QUOTE="minitrue, post: 6330607, member: 17293"] [b]Luke, you're going to find that many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on our own point of view[/b] I have to be honest, my statement wasn't about being negative, it was just a fact that I found funny based on what davemage posted. See it's funny because it's true. It's also only negative if you take it that way. To quote Obi-Wan 'you're going to find that many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on our own point of view.' I want 5e to be a success, whether I ever play it or not, I'm in a long running Pathfinder campaign now, and our group has no current plans to change. But a successful DnD brand is great for the rpg industry, the success of Pathfinder my be good or bad, but mention pathfinder in mixed company, some people may think your talking about an SUV, some may thinking your talking about a military school, some a boat. But mention Dungeons and Dragons, unless they've lived under a rock for the last 30 years, everyone know D&D. But a few questions for you: Does WotC cut it's talent every December - No. Do they only cut the talent in December - also No. But it just seems that when the big name talent is let go, it happens in December and en mass. Now, here why I didn't view my statement as negative. Look at Enworld Wotc Ex-Employee list [url]http://www.enworld.org/forum/showwiki.php?title=Ex-WotC-Employees[/url], are they all still making pen and paper rpgs - again No, but the majority of them are, either making other d20 products or other games for other systems, or creating their own systems. I think a positive for the rpg industry. I could certainly drop negativity about WotC, that's like shooting fish in a barrel, all too easy. Don't like my comments or don't find them humors, sorry to hear it. But drawing me back, only causes me to respond, which may offend your point of view. [/QUOTE]
