Yes, WoTC is truly heading downhill. Prices for D&D books and supplementals are rising, the selling off of D&D Campaign settings like Ravenloft, Dragonlance and L5R to other companies. Wizards has also sold off all their D&D periodicals as well (Star Wars Gamer etc). If I'm not wrong when Hasbro bought over WoTC a year ago, they appointed some suit as WotC's new boss, unfortunately he was later discovered to have embezzled a considerable amount of money from Wizards. Add to the fact that alot of staff who had contributed significantly to Wiazrd over the years had retired, resigned or even worse, been told that 'their services were no longer required'. Well in short, Wizards are screwed.
