Forum and manual interaction
The manual is great! It saves me a ton of time and most of the answers I need are there. I think it was a good move to publish it. One thing strikes me though. The forums tend to be quieter. I think that most of us suspect that the answers to the questions are usually in the manual, so we hesitate before posting. The discussions tend to be short “The manual says…” and there is a lot less mystery. It reminds me of the original Dungeon Masters Guide, which was fun to read, but an organizational disaster, while the new edtion rules, which are very organized, don’t have as much spark. Perhaps I am just getting older and nostalgic for the “good old days” but I am curious if others have felt the forums have a different feel to them now
