@binding_broken@tbbpublishing@RCahillAuthor Hasn't ryan expressed frustration with his arcs being resold for ridiculous prices in the past? Won't making multiple special edition arcs exacerbate that issue by adding to the collectible nature? This just seems like an odd decision to me
@nestultussit@robinhobb No US link, it's a small British company. You just have to pay in pounds. If you have a card with no foreign transaction fees it should be a straight conversion from pounds to dollars, otherwise your bank might hit you with a small fee on top of that.
@Marsupial_Gamer@Pirat_Nation Writing for games is an artistic pursuit. The role of an artist is not to make exactly what YOU want. It's to make exactly what THEY want. If you don't want to play a game because woke or whatever that's your perogative, but don't act like it's a personal attack on you, it isn't
@RobertL_parker@CuriousKing_ It's sold put, but generally a few copies come up for sale after all orders have been fulfilled. I'd suggest going to their website and signing up for the newsletter
@DiannaLGunn I get that your larger point is having an issue with the larger state of the industry, just wanted to point out that while he is massively successful and privileged he also tries to give back
@DiannaLGunn He's made at least one video going through every active publishing kickstarter and backing it. Not only giving monetary support, but free advertising. He's also been known to point his fans to crowd funding projects that he likes (a recent example being the dark thorn backerkit)
@ChaosPixieMagic@Wraithmarked But how is that at all the case here? Not only has he brought TONS of users to kickstarter and shown that there is a viable market for special editions. He's also promoted many small projects. Remember the video where he spoke about and backed all active publishing kickstarters?
@DanielVavra I think people complaining about the size and color are crazy, that said I do feel like the new stamina/health bars are too boxy. The original had the little flourish of decoration at the edges that just feels more fitting and less modern
@mfahrman @binding_broken Different printers have Different capabilities. Ace wasn't capable of printing the two latest dresden novels as the one book they were intended to be even though it was only around 800 pages combined. DAW had a printer capable of doing it, but it sounds like tbb doesn't
@robinhobb@grahamcox82 Really incredible to see you be so open to alternative points of view and willing to question your own. Would love to see you revisit this thread after you've had some time to research (whether your opinions change or not).
