>ideas

The guys who charge for their fucking WD brochures and literally marketed a Fuckup Removal Kit for their shit-tier "improved" main product line? Charging for books means they have to be made in the first place - at company expense - and that expense is no longer needed since GW is no longer a game company ...

Ha... he's talking about the Generals Handbook.

Age of Shitmar apologists deserve everything they get.

4e D&D wasn't much better.

lol we don't have taxes here in America!

We have freedom fees instead, you poor oppressed europoors under the opressiive boot of a communist government, having to pay taxes!
>>
>>48319718
The v is for vriheet. Freedom added tax.

I knew this would happen

OK I didn't, but it's hardly surprising, given their horrific recent track record

I heard they were a bit better recently?

That's cheaper than D&D 3.5 and 4e Essentials sold for.

Really, do these fuckwits even playtest their shit?
The fact that a book that is NOTHING BUT errata and rules tweaks exists is just mind-numbing.
Releasing a broken game and selling a patchbook so it plays the way it should've played in the first place is just...
GW is on par with EA for shitty business practice.
>>
>>48314394
What guarantee do i have that the errata book isn't full of errors so they can sell an errata book errata?
>>

>GW is on par with EA for shitty business practice.

EA releases bug fixes for free.

It's WB who think making DLC is more important than fixing bugs:

And now we watch the American's head explode because it's too stupid to comprehend 'freedom' and 'taxes' in the same sentence.

Freedom is slavery desu

>>48314394
This reminds me of Attack Vector. I bought the first printing of the thing and there's a book where some letters were replaced with another one making it a pain in the ass to read. They want to charge me full price for a proper book.
>>
>>48319718
..not sure if troll. Some states are tax free while others are not.
>>
>>48332653
And others still will have sales taxes on certain kinds of goods but not others.

>>48319524

>Errata for every book released was a frequently updated free download
>Not much better

What.
>>
>>48332794
You're one of those people who are still in denial about Essentials being 4.5, huh?
>>
>>48333149

Well considering 3.5 replaced all of the core rules for 3e and Essentials didn't do anything of the sort....yeah, I live in the real world, I guess.
>>

the errata for the Essentials books was also free

He's implying that Essentials was effectively errata for 4e.
>>
>>48333333
Uh huh.

>>48333888

But that makes no sense.
>>
>>48322661
why wouldn't we defend a company listening too their customers and giving them what they want.

>>48335012
Made an errata to the first Age of Sigmar tournament rulebook that costs 15 Euro + change.
>>
>>48327551
What the flying fuck am I reading.
The amount of secret clubbing in there is astounding.
>>
>>48335166
adding whole new rules and game types isn't errata. it's more akin too an "expansion" like apoc or cityfight used to be. plus they're selling it as a physical book. of course its going to cost money.
>>
>>48335529
no it should be free
