All the way to the knee after they hired Punkerton's Murder Hobos to intimidate that one dude and his wife.
My group was upset over the OGL debacle, WotC has since made progressively worse decisions regarding how they treat consumers.
I would suggest trying something different. Castles & Crusades by Troll Lord Games is one option. The current book lineup is pretty solid, plays like D&D for the most part. The options in the Castle Keeper's Guide let you incorporate feats into the game. And its not WotC product. My group made the switch. We now play C&C and Numenera and have abandoned WotC product until they actually start firing people at the top and hiring people that know how to treat customers correctly. They are trying to push their Virtual Tabletop a little too hard. After spending 2 years gaming on roll20 my group feels its far too late for a virtual tabletop. Most of my group was tired of playing online and grateful to be back together in person. We have no intention of going back to online play just so WotC can use online streaming to generate revenue.
WotC earned 3 strikes in four months with us. The OGL debacle was the 1st. Removing Half-Elf and Half-Orc from the PHB was the 2nd. Using Pinkertons Mercs to intimidate a customer who accidentally received an unreleased product was the 3rd and final strike and the straw that broke the camel's back. The Virtual tabletop looks cool, but my group has decided we're not going back to that kind of environment. There were too many issues we had online that we lack with in person gaming.
