Short story, it was a compromise. Long story: Maybe in my memoir or over drinks at GenCon but I'm pretty sure I'm still have an NDA.

Finally! Well done.

qft.

Us 4e supporters need to stick together so fire up that bat signal thing I'll come in and roll some heads. :devil: thanks :o Sincerely, Scott Rouse The semi-legendary soon to be 5e supporter

People have been miss-attributing the stuff I say for years so I guess it is nothing new. Maybe it's because I've been pretty silent on stuff like this in the past. Sure I said something provocative but this should not be new news to anyone. It's all been said by the members of the community a...

You sending the Wolf? I feel better now!

People shouldn't put that much stock in what I say, in fact I may have turned into just another message board troll. :erm:

So you want to support a company with a pretty consistent design & development staff and a game system (cal it "edition") with a 8-10 year life-cycle? Seems like Paizo may be fitting that criteria pretty well.

Done. Thanks

As a playable game it is no more borked than OD&D, AD&D, 3.X, etc. If the game is fun for you then keep playing it. :)

Beyond Gary Gygax & Bill Slavicesk who has been at the design helm of the game for more than 1 edition (8-10 years)?

My statement about the game being broken is more a commentary on the environment in which 4e currently lives (play & business). The audience is fractured among a few D&D systems, the GSL did not accomplish what it was supposed to do (create broad 3pp support for the system), the designs has...

Thanks :D BTW is the thread looking goofy for anyone else? Everything from #125 is posting like a multi-quote under Roland55

I am going to retract this. There was the sales of older edition D&D PDFs via RPG now.

People leave companies on their own or through layoff/firing all the time so statements made by individuals need to be attributed to the company. If people are going to hold a company accountable on the validity of statements for 2, 3, 4, 5+ years then those companies would be best served to not...

By support I meant making a business out of old edition. Haha, yeah I "parachuted out". If 4e was working (as a game/business) we would still be talking about 5e rumors and not 5e reality right now.

To be fair, considering how well Pathfinder is doing, the DID NOT kill 3.x (thanks to the OGL). TSR/WotC have never supported past editions when a new version came out. Most (if not all) publishers stop supporting old editions when new versions come out. BTW there is a school of thought that...

My therapist tells me admitting this kind of stuff is healthy. :-S

Since you're quoting me I'll chime in. I don"t have a horse in this race and I have largely moved on (professionally and personally). Yes I did say that and at that point in time anyone on the D&D team would have said the same thing. The publishing goal was (and should be) to have the edition...

Unifying the RPG community around 5e will be the greatest & most difficult accomplishment since the launch of 3e & the OGL. In fact, in many ways I think getting a majority of gamers behind 5e will be even more difficult. 3e launched at such a low point, with the sad state D&D (2nd ed) and...
