There are a number of media info sheets up on ENWorld. The D&D Insider one puts it at $9.95 per month. Now its possible that someone created this and fooled the folks at ENWorld into thinking it is official, but I'd be surprised if that were the case.


Well, that person would have had to disguise himself as Scott Rouse, have an accomplice disguised as BilL Slavicsek, and somehow fool me when handing me the CD with the information on it! :D

So the confirmed price is 9.95 US? I thought it was between 8 and 15 and subject to change from now to next years release.

Sorry, you cannot get that citation from me. I just know that on four different websites I have heard of it from the begining as people were citing the various reasons they thought 4e was horrible. Personally I am really looking forward to 4e. I plan to get D&DI and all the core books.

To be completely fair though, if I recall the promise correctly, the 1 years warning was made by someone who is no longer with WotC. In addition, I recall a disclaimer of, "If I have anything to say about it." Which, if he's not there anymore, he doesn't have much to say. He also said it was going to happen 2010, I think.

It's been a while since I've seen it...

It was Charles Ryan, former Brand Manager who, as you say, is no longer with WotC:

Thank you! I couldn't remember the details. While the search function is back, my search-fu is weak, and I couldn't find it on the WotC forums.

Calestin, when a person issues a statement about a product the company he works at produces, no one should feel suprised when the consumers of said product beleive him.

I cannot find anything about this, will there be an option of a preorder for PHB/MM/DMG on Amazon or the like? Thanks.

p.s. looking forward to 4E, I'm satisfied with the state of the game at this moment but I hope for some more improvements!

Yes. Amazon is already offering pre-orders for both the preview books, the Keep on the Shadowfell 4E preview adventure, and the 4E Player's Handbook.

People are absolutely frothing at the mouth about this online content thing;
I've been hearing a lot of upset people along these lines, and I do understand your gripes. Why should certain people who pay for the DDI have access to newer cooler classes, feats, and races than people who don't? Well, I suppose if you didn't buy Stormwrack you wouldn't have access to it's cool stuff either.

I don't think that this will ever be a real problem for a couple of reasons.

1.) It won't take 2 weeks before under the guise of "discussing" the pros and cons of any new content the specifics of any new content is plastered all over the net anyway. Free to anyone who can read it anywhere online not just on DDI. Sure, they can easily limit the distribution of their intellectual property, but they can't stop people from discussing it technically with others on the internet. And most things on the internet are just like what your reading right now. In print and easily accessible.

2.) I can't believe that anyone at WotC would be dense enough not to see the marketability of a hard copy or CD/DVD anthology of online content for the past year to be released say in February of the next year to a happy market of offline gamers.

Honestly, calm down, we are gamers not chicken little!
