I was at the Pinnacle main site (it's my startup
page) and the poll question scared the hell out of me.
For those of you that haven't been there,
it was "would you like to see a D20 book?"
To me, this is saying that the Pinnacle gang has
been approached by WOTC.
All I want to know, if you can answer, are
we looking at the evil empire taking over another system?
For what it's worth, DON'T DO IT!!!! For the love
all that is holy don't sell out to them
A friend of mine read an article that
came out shortly before the release of AD&D 3rd Edition. In it, one
of the WotC people made some sort of claim that they would eventually turn
every game system into a d20 system, essentially boasting that they'll own all
the games before all is said and done.
Personally, I think the changes that they
made to AD&D were good ones, it was an outdated, cumbersome game.
However, I despise the cutthroat corporate attitude WotC has evidenced.
I know I can't do much to stop them if Pinnacle did decide to make a deal with
the devil, but I would be highly dismayed to see them do such a thing.
All I can say is that everybody who thinks as we do should go and vote "No" on
their poll.
