[QUOTE="DJCupboard, post: 3005869, member: 21995"] Not that I voted (sorry), but it would take a massively improved game to get me to switch. Not because I'm some kind of purist (IMO, that would mean sticking staunchly to OD&D), but because I've sunk trememdous amounts of money (compared to my income) into the current edition. I greatly enjoyed 2E (which is where I really got my gaming start, though I did play OD&D first), but I only had four books, total, so the transition was easy and 3E made some really elegant changes. Now I have sixty plus books and haven't even started to use them all (not to mention all the ogl and d20 variants that I own but haven't had the time to run). I might buy 4E out of curiousity like I did nWoD, but realistically, it would take noone I know continuing to play 3.x or a radical improvement of game mechanics for me to seriously entertain switching. In terms of hints of major changes to the style of the system (minis required; random, collectable rules supliments), I can remember when WoTC bought TSR and then the 3e rumours started pouring out. I didn't have reliable internet then, so I don't know if this sentiment was what was milled about here, but my group was terrified they would incorporate M:tG cards as integral to the system. Of course, when the book actually came out, we all switched pretty quickly, even those among us who had nearly every 2E book. So maybe the new system (whenever it comes out) will lure me in. Well that's enough rambling. [/QUOTE]
