This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Prices only upset me when they are egregious. If it's too costly to ship me a book (and by and large i buy off the shelf) then that's a lost sale that perhaps could have been otherwise.
I consider LotW to be a print project. That they can use the source files for a pdf is good and a worthwhile endeavour, but i seriously don't think you can say that because the print version costs money to produce that a pdf alternative from the same files should be commensurately priced.
"Ghost Whistler" is rated PG-13 (Parents strongly cautioned). Parental death, alien battles and annihilated worlds.

I don't think anyone said that. All that was said is that their approach to PDF seems naive and suggesting reasons for that.

I agree, total and UTTER garbage...

If you didn't like WotG, the upshot is that you can be pretty sure that Legends of the Wulin is unlikely to be for you.

I didn't like WotG either, but I saw some potential in it. LotW capitalises on the good things and removes most of the bad IMO and has won me back to being very interested in running it.

I'm not suggesting that is what they think, merely that is how i regard these projects. Had it been produced for pdf format it would be a very different product. WotG is a gorgeous book, but as a pdf it is a complete nightmare.
