[QUOTE="ferratus, post: 5801214, member: 55966"] I don't the OP means continued support in terms of new content. I think he is just speaking of the existing online 4e adventure tools (character builder and monster builder) vanishing into the ethereal plane. There is of course an offline character builder which most 4e players still have, but that runs out of content in April 2010. Some of the best stuff has come about in the past year for 4e (such as Themes). I don't think the essentials classes are on the offline character builder either. Putting the 4e character tools in the archives would cost WotC essentially nothing in terms of server space, so I don't see why WotC can't keep it up there. Now if Silverlight doesn't get continued support from Microsoft... well you can't blame WotC for that. ;) I just thought I'd pipe up, because it seemed like people were talking past each other.
