Would more planar content affect your buying of Dragon?

[Olive]

As seen here the various articles about the Hells are some of the most well thought of articles Dragon has ever run.

So I thought it would interesting to see if people would like to see more planar content in Dragon. By planar content I mean information about the planes rather than just 'here's 6 new yugoloths with axes for hrads'. More fluff/locations etc.

I like d20!

And dragon is okay.

I don't buy every issue, and more planar stuff wouldn't make any real difference in how often I buy it.

I could have said that...but Green eggs are so much more fun to talk about.

Don't do planar adventuring, so it would be of even less use to me than the magazine already is.

Considering the cover price, Dragon is not a worthwhile investment for me...

 

[Nightfall]

Yeah but maybe you REALLLY need them Rimali's tower or some Planescape stuff!

I have a subscription, and I'm planning on maintaining it.

Really, I get a lot of use out of it with planar material, but I do a lot of planar adventuring, so it'd balance out.

Given Wombat's hatred of the planes, I doubt it.

Planar material means almost nothing to me. we don't do a lot of plane-jumping, and I doubt more support for that kind of play would do much to endear Dragon to us.

What would get me to buy Dragon more was a return to it being an RPG magazine, rather than a WotC house organ. Next month is the release of the Stronghold Builder's Guide, then sure-as-shooting that means that this month's Dragon is all about strongholds.

It's not going to happen, I think the old Dragon folded when it was a magazine that I loved...I can live with it as-is, but I generally only buy an issue every few months (when there is something useable or interesting).

The Westeros issue was abominable, but I really commend the folks there for at least attempting to shine a light on my favorite fantasy series.

And the map was good.

Stannis Baratheon as a paladin was beyond idiotic

I don't think that that is near as bad as it was a couple of years ago. Notice, the draconomicon release didn't coincide with a dragon themed issue, and the complete warrior barely got a mention in Dragon. The BoED had one linked article which provided genuine support content.

So, maybe that problem is already solved?
