[QUOTE="Festivus, post: 5437986, member: 34532"] [b]So, if you were, but no longer are a subscriber to DDI...[/b] I was up until two weeks ago, but only because I had a discount subscription until then (early adopter, bought 2 years when I could for a steep discount). At present, I do not feel it's value is worth the price. [b]What was the turning point where you decided to cancel your subscription or let it lapse?[/b] I think when the value I was getting out of it dipped to near nothing. The content of Dungeon and Dragon were going downhill in terms of quality and quantity, more and more it seemed like advertisements than actual content. But the big tipping point was when they made the CB online only. I like to have my software after I stop paying a monthly subscription for it, so when they took that ability to get updates to that away, I stopped my subscription. [b]Was it an economic issue, content issue?[/b] Content, totally. See above. [b]And, what other issues have continued to influence your ongoing purchase of D&D material?[/b] I really like the 4E ruleset, but outside of that, I buy things typically that have a) poster maps, b) any adventure material, usually just to harvest stuff but there have been occasional diamonds in the rough [b]Did a ruling anger you?[/b] I think my anger is more about all the changes forced upon Living Forgotten Realms moreso than 4e. The campaign is a shell of it's former self in my opinion, yet I am hopeful for a rebound. Sadly, the cards thing is probably going to ruin that too. [b]Do you suffer from errata fatigue?[/b] No, I don't really feel there is that much errata to the core rules, which is all I really care about. Powers might be tweaked here and there but they don't affect my overall opinion of the game... after all, I don't play with every single power in the game, only those for my class. [/QUOTE]
