[QUOTE="LightPhoenix, post: 4005494, member: 115"] For the record, I've always been in the wait-and-see group with regards to DI. Heck, I've got one foot in the "pass" group. So, I'm not really likely to give the benefit of the doubt to WotC on this. However, let me perhaps suggest another scenario. The reason we have not been getting updates isn't because they don't want to give them. I'm definitely willing to believe they do. Perhaps there are factors outside of the control of the DI team, or even WotC. Maybe there have been articles ready to go for a while now, and they've been hung up in being approved by various people. We know the rules have been in a state of flux until the PHB was sent to the printers. With these rules in flux, how can you approve an article that will go online? Will the article be outdated by the time it gets approved? The only way to do that it to paint in relatively broad strokes. Suffice to say that has been the case. Perchance it was decided the marketing strategy would be to not release any information. It could be they want as many people to buy the books before making a judgement. It could also be that they know that many people will be instantly judgemental without seeing the whole ruleset. Maybe someone up high just decided previews were a bad idea, after the leaks with M:tG. Who knows? [/QUOTE]
