[QUOTE="Corpsetaker, post: 7688101, member: 6776548"] I still feel they are holding out on non setting splatbooks because they want to keep most people playing in FR and not their own homebrew games. I just don't buy into the whole "getting the most out of everybook" spin. The nature of this game is the way it is. Not all people play rogues so they aren't going to buy a "Rogues Handbook" but there are plenty of others who do and who will buy it. The game needs to be created in order to meet different tastes and game groups. It is not the ideal money maker and they knew that and yet they are trying to get the most money out of it which means less for the fans. When I look back at all the 2nd edition stuff and I here how bad is was for TSR I then say to myself - "Well look at how good it turned out for the fans." I have no problem with making profit and I think Wizards has been a profitable company for a long time, it just stinks when they are most likely being told they aren't making enough profit. They don't tell us anything because they want to keep us around and waiting. [/QUOTE]
