[QUOTE="Sunseeker, post: 5379370"] Exactly, and yet, many people here consistently express the opinion that WotC should NOT be doing that. And that any attempts to do so are "bad". More revenue is good for everyone. Their products become better, they become more frequent, the price goes down. The idea that a tabletop game MUST be unprofitable is a false one. Thank you for decidedly ignoring the point I was making and instead decrying the limitations of MMOs. The point I was trying to make was that WoW is a massive game, comprable in scale, if not in scope, to D&D. It is published in a digital format, and it STILL has bugs and updates and moficiations and tweaks and nerfs, almost EVERY week since it's release. D&D is just as big in scale, if not bigger, and larger in scope as well. But it is published in a format that is unfriendly to updates, even small ones, even bug fixes. And that's a customer decision, I'm sure their actions have gained them customers as well. Last time: please read what I write before responding. If you don't like what WotC does, feel free to show it with your money. But if they then do something you find favorable, show them that you support that move, with your money. When the dog doesn't sit, you smack it. When the dog does sit, you give it a cookie. Eventually, the dog will always sit. [/QUOTE]
