[QUOTE="drjones, post: 4139453, member: 62944"] It is mostly going to be a matter of money I think. The last fully fledged turn based isometric dnd game was Temple Of Elemental Evil and well.. I think it killed the genera for quite a while. (probably forever). I played a lot of nwn and I like it, nwn2 as well. Bioware obviously never wants to do another game with WOTC so I am not holding my breath on them restarting the brand with 4th but some less sterling company might do it with, I would guess, mixed results that stem from smaller budgets combined with a complicated game system that must be just so. And there there is DND Online which I also played and liked for a little while. It seems to have the subscriber base to limp along but it is always a ghost town when I have tried it again. I would guess someone at Hasbro is still trying to figure out why they are not getting dumptrucks full of money from it like WoW so who knows if it will be tried again. But yeah I think it is very possible to do a real time or turn based 4e and I would bet money that WOTC has been talking about it for almost as long as they have been considering a new edition. Weither it will be good or will sell, that is another matter. [/QUOTE]
