Why don't you buy non-WoTC stuff?

[QUOTE="laiyna, post: 332249, member: 4336"] If I look at my d20 books I need to notice that a very big part is WotC. Not becouse I like it better but becouse they publish more per month. Now if I look at the % I buy from WotC in number of books, I think its only 30% WotC and the other 70% other publishers. If I take out the books I say that are very good and skip the PHB, DMG, MM, PsiHB (thats just core rules) I get the next list: Book of Eldritch Might 2 (Malhavoc) Chaos Magic (Mongoose) Manual of the Planes (Wizards) Occult Lore (Atlas) Shaman (GreenRonin) Traps & Treachery (Legends&Lairs) And from the good Campaign Settings: Kalamar (Kenzer) Rokugan (AEG) Wheel of Time (Wizards) I think you notice that about every publisher makes a few good things (to my taste) and in general everybody about as often as the others. Then you also need to take into account that most people don't spend the amount of money on d20 as I do so they're collection is much smaller, also take into account that most people only collect one setting and that the prices in Holland are about 150% of the prices in the US. Then they're collections are small, and indeed WotC will be a big part of they're collection, and they don't got the cash to try stuff out. So a known setting is often chosen (FR, Grey Hawk & Scarred Lands(known publisher) ). Now lately Kalamar is also selling better in Holland. Laiyna [/QUOTE]
