"If you don't sell it to us for x, then we don't sell your product at y price, or at all for that matter." It would drive down the prices somewhat, and the exposure would be fantastic for the hobby, but I don't think any of the major publishers would be willing to shoulder theJim Haltomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18027543630803308847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5124770754805827894.post-13936360623390803622014-01-03T23:37:08.355-05:002014-01-03T23:37:08.355-05:00And that's how I know that they're bound t...And that's how I know that they're bound to fail, they make sense.Dyvershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06032957275132817602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5124770754805827894.post-17652692872827761962014-01-03T18:07:41.540-05:002014-01-03T18:07:41.540-05:00Very interesting assertions my friend.

I like a lot of them and though bold, as Mark Knights noted, I am surprised as how viable they sound. <br /><br />Not surprised because I didn't think you personally would come up with these but because most similar predictions are usually grander and less likely to happen. These seem sensible.

It has the largest market share and it will force the price down, rather than up.Dyvershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06032957275132817602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5124770754805827894.post-18916232122474424442014-01-03T15:29:30.934-05:002014-01-03T15:29:30.934-05:00I suck at predicting anything, but if I may ride y...I suck at predicting anything, but if I may ride your coattails and provided commentary from the peanut gallery:<br /><br />1. I hope so. No dig on Paizo, but I didn't enjoy 3.5 and even though I haven't played Pathfinder, since it's based on 3.5, I just don't dig the bloat.
