You are utterly glazing over my points. It is not as simple as 'it is stealing'. I have no other way to acutally show my players how to play without asking 4 people who are completely new to the system to pay £30 on a whim of a game. That is not a neglible sum. Additionally, as I have pointed...
When I was referring to the price, I was referring to the PDF price. Hard-copy wise £30 is fair. But for a PDF it's a bit much. The physical costs of printing the book are removed from the equation, yet the prices are the same? There should at least be a PDF-only version for cheaper (printing...
Photocopies are a good example. The thing is though, with printed books its nearly impossible to watermark it due to the costs needed to print each book custom. So it goes from a comparable analogy, to suddenly something that is more complex than it appears.
This I feel is a bit of an extreme...
I don't particularly see it as entitlement, but convenience. I understand it is a product, but this is an age where the digital medium is being defined by new laws and rules. At what point does sharing a physical book equate to being illegal? What about a digital pdf? If the two have different...
I do not see the difference between that and sharing a book in real life besides the vast distances between the players and GM. There needs to be some way I can share the book with players and there is no alternative that is not just a tedious formality thus far. An interesting addition on...
I share the book on a trust basis and hope they respect my wishes when I request they delete any files that they were given after usage so that it is not distributed out of our gaming circle.
I share it in the same way a GM will show their players pages or something. Otherwise it's impossible to play the game without a 250$ investment split 4 additional ways.
EDIT: It is either that, or I have to use puush on every page I need to show a player. But that is incredibly tedious.
I should preface this post mostly relates with the choices made by Mongoose rather than the actual rules changes or what have you. Currently I am very much so enjoying 2e and it is a very polished product so far. However, I have a few gripes with Mongoose's model here.
1) Watermarked PDFS. I...
Good improvement. Its a bit muddled, but I believe that is due to the way you captured the actual page. If possible, send another version of that page but at full size so I can properly gauge readability.
This is a rough mockup I came up with in around half-an-hour.
Your post falls to a few things that a lot of people seem to go for when they first start laying out pdfs and such in the rpg community. Namely a lot of textures, white-with-black outline, odd colour choices (inc. too much...
I have been itching to write my own setting material using the Mongoose Traveller rules. So I was curious, what is the OGL in relation to works that only use the core rules (e.g. the ones that could be found on http://www.traveller-srd.com/). I really like the system, and I am worried I may get...
