[QUOTE="Felix, post: 3703060, member: 3929"] I don't want to change to 4e. What I don't look forward to is the split in the forums; 3.5 is a fine game, but no longer will its proponents have anything new and shiny to get excited about. Sure, all my stuff still works, but when 4e folks come along saying, "Hey, look at [i]this[/i]!" I'll have nothing to add except everything that has already been published. I think that when I say I feel sad that 3rd Edition is dying, I mean that soon it will no longer be growing; and if a living thing is no longer growing, it is dying. D&D may live on through further editions as parents live in their children, but that does not make the parents' passing any less grieving. I love the 3e rules set; I love that it resuscitated a hobby of mine dormant for 8 years; I love this community that grew itself around 3e as a rosebush does a trellis; I love 3e the way I loved my high-school camaro, and I hate to think that with the advent of a system which will be as shiny and new as my 325i, I will run 3e as often as I drive my long-gone car. I can't help but think that the old girl had some beautiful miles left in her, undiscovered. [/QUOTE]
