>Paizo removed all their old Dungeon and Dragon mags from their store when they updated it
>even before that removal, numerous issues were missing
>still not on dmsguild
>you have to buy them in print at ridiculous markup
This is absurd. Why can't Paizo and WOTC just both get some money for sales? All I want is OEF copies of every magazine so I can ctrl-F them, and I'm willing to pay good money for it.

They really are the last remnants of a bygone age, it's a wonder that White Dwarf still exists.

it isn't happening, anon, magazines are dead and gone. You can get them from Internet Archive and other sources, it's what I'm doing to get old modules and whatnot

Because they're retarded.
Pozzio is fully distancing themselves from DND by investing in the gayest sci-fi setting ever conceived that literally nobody wants.
WOTC is so out of touch and oblivious that the CEO thought Baldur's Gate was a VTT and that there's never been a DND MMO (there are two and they're getting regular expansions), there's no way the higher ups even know Dragon or Dungeon magazine exists.

Potentially rights issues, and the effort to correct them isn't worth the pitiful return.

>>98760860
If you cared, you would've already pirated them long ago.

Where I work (not gaming related) we had a bunch of stuff we couldn't reprint from the 00s because a lot of it was in typefaces we hadn't paid for. It was the wild west back then and you could just download a bunch of copyrighted stuff off DaFont and go wild. I believe we received a C&D over it and since then a bunch of stuff stays in the archive and won't come back out unless they can justify the effort of reformatting it all.
So yeah, rights issues can fuck up a project like this even on the minor stuff.

This is depressing.

I HAVE pirated them. Most of them aren't OEF and are bad scans

There is a good chance the original electronic format for some earlier magazines no longer exists, or is no longer compatible with the software the company has.
Publishing is a pain in the arse.
