[QUOTE="the Lorax, post: 3899503, member: 27662"] DI has really fallen flat. I have not recieved 2 Dungeons and 2 Dragons worth of material since the last print editions, much less 1 Dungeon and 1 Dragon. They have to get out of the mindset that some things aren't worth the "space" that would be dedicated to them in a print product. The articles have been nice but not exciting. Graz'zt - love it, but the PrC is still on the weak end of things and the pitiful additional NPCs are weak and not even detailed. Devil Aristocracy - nice, but the articles from any ONE of Dragons 75, 76 or 91 had more material, and they had to contend with page space limitations. The handful of Dukes detailed is laughable actually. Iggwilv - nice safe rewrite, with no real attempt to tweak the monster listing to make the theme a bit better - sheesh, just throwing a Fiendish template on everything would've helped. All they have to do is throw in some 4e crumbs and they may well have many people eating out of their hands, but they cant even manage that - It would've been so much better for them to extend Paizo's hold on Dungeon and Dragon so that they would have 2-3 magazines worth of material ready on Day One, and then could dribble out articles little bit at a time aftewords. Oh well, the milk is spilled... [/QUOTE]
