[QUOTE="Death Dealer, post: 3925267, member: 57742"] When 3E came out the reinvention was necessary. I had long lost interest in D&D, having progressed through BECMI, 1E & 2E. 3E rocked and was closer to the game I had always envisioned. I think there was a necessity for 3E that does not exist for 4E. Bear in mind I am looking forward to 4E, but I don't belive 3/3.5E is dead in the water the same way 2E was prior to 3E release. The one thing I can say in support of 4E though, is 3.5 is oversaturated with prestige classes. That and the fact that many people find most of the PrC's & new base classes better than the 11 core classes, I can see why Wizards is going forward with 4E. From what I have read so far, and I hope this is true, there will be no PrC's, but options to make your base class progress in that direction (through talents? class kits?) Several PrC's have been named, but they specifically said they would be options (at the Paragon level?) you could choose for your character, not multiclassing. Having said all this, I agree, 4E will lose hardcore 3/3.5 fans & not attract new gamers the way 3E did. [/QUOTE]
