[QUOTE="Ankh-Morpork Guard, post: 920016, member: 10079"] I don't get it. People gripe and complain over and over about how broken things are, how this should be fixed and how this is the worst thing every and who this is wrong and should just be thrown out forever... Then, WotC LISTENS to these complaints, and decides they need to update the rules to address these problems that have come up. In the process of thier Revision, they realize other things that should be fixed, and it grows to a larger scale, but is STILL 'fixing' things that were complained about over and over. They then announce that the rules will be put out COMPLETELY FREE in the SRD, meaning that people don't even need to BUY the new books. Now, they say they'll even provide a "Conversion Manual" to assist in the conversion, which probably isn't that much, but like another poster said, we live in the "Lather. Rinse. Repeat" age. And after all this, people decide to change thier minds. Now WotC is a company out to get our money...when weren't they? Star Wars Revised was quicker than this, and it changed a lot...yet...the game is SO MUCH BETTER. This is what I see the Revision for D&D doing. Like it or not, games evolve. If you want to stick with older versions, don't complain they aren't being supported, because, believe it or not, you're in the minority. WotC would NOT do this if there wasn't a majority WANTING the Revision..they wouldn't make money otherwise. ...is this just another case of the vocal minority and the silent majority?
