WotC Angst?

On a one-ten scale, how would you rate your level of WotC Angst?


Meh, with both hands held upright, palm outwards. The palms are then brought downwards with a throwing motion as the word is gutturally uttered. (Which is better than Feh with a single backhanded motion.)

In all seriousness, I just don't like it when they discontinue their products and no longer support them. Especially when they stop after only a year or two.
 

I'm an AARG! How do I explain it. It's like wanting Coke but all they make is Dr. Pepper.

In fact no one makes Coke but these guys have the best shot at it.
 

I chose meh because 4e just isn't my style. Also, I have the feeling that if I told WoTC that I stopped buying any of their products because 4e wasn't for me, they're response would be "meh" as well.
 


Meh.

I used to feel a lot of angst towards WotC, but not anymore. They won't be getting any more of my money any time soon, though, what with Star Wars gone. I stopped caring about 4e ages ago. It's funny though - I bought into the 4e preview hype big time, so really there was nowhere left to go but down. But for a while it was great. I even had "4e is 4 me" as my slogan. But then I started to hate it. And quite strongly. 4e most definitely wasn't "4 me". But now I've moved on. I still play it, but I no longer have any vested interest in the state of the game. I thought the whole online CB debacle was interesting (I hadn't seen that much nerdrage since 4e was first announced), but it didn't upset me because I stopped updating my offline CB when they brought out the errata that nerfed avengers (that class is 4e's saving grace for me ... I love being able to roll twice and keep the better result - plus it lets me play D&D and still sneak in a bit of Star Wars, since the Serene Initiate PP is very Jedi-like, while the Ardent Champion[?] is very Sith-like).

Funny thing is: I tried playing Pathfinder recently and actually found myself wishing I was playing 4e instead. Ah well ...

So yeah: I'm not particularly impressed with WotC these days, but I don't think there's anything they can do to actally upset me anymore.

Voted yay, which is disappointing, because I should fall squarely into the squee catagory.

Recent handling of DDI online and my overall lack of interest in essentials (with the exception of the great new monster design, which was really from MM3 anyways) has perplexed me somewhat.
