I must admit that when I first saw the new magazine in my mailbox and flipped through it, I hated it, but I’m an old dog as the saying goes, so I gave it some time and slowly worked my way through the magazine. So, now I like it and I hate it.

I love the content; there was a lot of good work there, and I found much inspiration. But if the same articles are going to repeat themselves over and over, I’d rather not buy the magazine.

The new product updates are space waster for me. I suspect that most of your readers are internet savvy and get their updates that way (hey were all geeks here). The layout was absolutely awful in a number of spots. Large white pages with black text make me feel like I was reading a technical paper. The new font for Dragon looks like D20 Modern, not D&D. Finally, the Samurai versus Knight article was annoying. It contained so many assumptions, if’s and maybes that I really didn’t care. That article should have been a page.

I think I'll wait one more issue before renewing my subscription.
