[QUOTE="BrooklynKnight, post: 2242527, member: 4490"] I think it would make more sense, and might actually work, to re-edit/print the actual core books once a year to add eratta/fix typos. But actual established eratta. And ok, not every year but every 2 perhaps. I know I'd gladly fork over another 90$ if all the errata was put INTO the books and they were reprinted. Why would this work better then a new edition? Simply because there is no question of compatiblity. 3.5 and 3.0 are supposed to be backwards compatible. But c'mon, they really arent. Its too much of a hassle. The thing that a consumer wants most when buying, is convinence. Its why we like table of contents, and indexes and so forth. The more convinent it is to use any given product the more value it has. When you need to crossrefrence other products or books or printouts to have the most up to date information, then the product looses its value and depreciates. I know quite a few people who bought the Leatherbound PHB because it had all the erratta for the PHB at the time of printing edited in. If Hasbro wants us to keep buying the core books, they need to give us good reason. Reasons other then "additional support". A new edition wont work because 3.5 is still working. [/QUOTE]
