[QUOTE="Li Shenron, post: 6298004, member: 1465"] I think artwork is very important for me in a RPG book. The rules need to be solid, functional and all that, but artwork is what often just inspires me to play something or write an adventure. But I have no idea on what kind of artwork I really want. It's easier for me to say what I don't want: no sexualized characters, no excessive horror/gore, no pulp or anime. Overall I suppose that artwork variety in general is a good thing. In late 3e years and then 4e years, I got the impression that "WAR" took over too much, I used to like his pictures but after a while I started to hate them, they just got used too much too often. I hope for the new edition to have no single artist to take over the rest. OTOH, some consistency in style is needed as well. Mixing too wildly different styles may have a dissonant feel. Finally, if they could bring Tony DiTerlizzi, Todd Lockwood and Sam Wood back, then I'd be really happy :) [/QUOTE]
