[QUOTE="Arlough, post: 5439609, member: 79335"] Okay, so if I am reading this right (feel free to tell me if I am mistaken) most of the loss seems to be focused on the recent changes to DDI, especially with regards to the CB. Mostly it seems to break down to this, at least in the later posts. [LIST] [*]Online only CB does not suit my purposes. [*]I am against leasing my game material. [*]Wizards IP paranoia is making it hard for me to support them. [*]I really don't feel I am getting $70 - $120 value out of this. - Software (Online CB) is buggy - Dungeon and Dragon have diminished in content/value - not yet enough tools to make it worth my time [/LIST] Additional issues seem to be: [LIST] [*]Lack of e-book support. [*]Lack of previous edition support. (sorry, I am kinda with WotC on this one) [*]Lack of disposable income/different financial priorities. [*]Broken promises/never gave me what I paid for. [/LIST] Initially, I noticed that people were commenting on how they hated the CB change, and I wondered if this was just a luxury that we had grown so fond of that we felt hobbled without it. But, it seems to be more a value of product issue. For you early posters, would you say that is the case? And, out of curiosity, how many of you are DM's at least 50% of the time you play? [/QUOTE]
