[QUOTE="Lord Xtheth, post: 3917326, member: 56179"] I remember, back in highschool when 3.0 was first coming out, and my gaming group back then didn't want to get into it. "too many things are changing" "we already have all the rules" "I know this system too well" and so on. Then 3.0 came out, and it was an excelent system. So we all got into 3rd. Then, only a few years later, 3.5 came out. I was no longer part of that gaming group, and in a different part of the country. Players there were angry "We don't need a whole new book for a couple feats" "the monster manual 1 and 2 already cover the critters in the new MM" "What could posibly warrant a new edition already?" and so on. Then it came out, and I for one LIKED the little changes and completely converted to 3.5 and my playing group was happy with the little changes, as well as the big ones. Now 4th edition is coming out, and all I'm hearing is the same things that I heard for the turn of other editions. I'm going to at least give the core a go at it. PHB, DMG, and MM. Who knows, it MIGHT just be the be-all and end-all to roleplaying. Then again it might be a flop. The fact of the matter is that I don't know what it is. No one here knows what it is, and until we do we shouldn't be so quick to pass judgement. Don't give up on somthing just because 2nd hand information doesn't sound the way you want it to. Look at it for yourself when it comes out, then deside. Anyways, thats my rant for this week. [/QUOTE]
