No more mags

I don't know if anyone else is a subscriber, but Dragon and Dungeon magazine
are going the way of the dodo. Those of us doing Savage Tide will get to
the end, but after that no more.

Lots of activity on the WOTC and Paizo message boards by upset gamers.

Hi-

 

Ya I saw a posting about this situation over at the en world boards. I dont think it will be the end of these magazines, from what I gather it sounds like WoTC plans to do them as electronic down loads.

Aye, and I'm none to surprised as it seems to be the wave of the future since it is such a huge savings on publishing costs.  I saw an article w/ the Owner of the NY Times where he flat out stated he wasn't sure they'd be publishing an actual news paper hard copy in 5 years time cause the push to electronic media was so strong, to the tune of saving him something like several hundred million, if not a billion bucks a year in printing costs.

I'm still sad. I'll cheerfully await long periods of time to get a magazine
in the mail, and then longer periods of time reading it. My attention span
for online stuff, however, is dismally small. To me, there's no replacing
something I can hold in my hands to give me a real sense of what it is I
have. Maybe I've just never really gotten into the information age like I
should.

I agree completely with you.  I don't like electronic books either.  Give me hard copy any day.  But then again, I'm an old fart.
