[QUOTE="ShinHakkaider, post: 3716911, member: 9213"] Well there's that and the fact that it probably wont be useable with 4E without massive conversions. I bought DCC#35 online with a discount and when I was going through it at the time I said to myself "This is good, but I'm glad that I didnt pay full price for it". A couple of months later, I went through the materials again to stripmine for ideas and locations and realized that it was well worth the money that I paid and probably a little more. I was actually anticipating Castle Whiterock (Hell I bought Ptolus for pete's sake) but I buy pre-written adventures so that I dont have to do any conversion leg work and with Andy Collins basically saying that theyre not even going to bother with a conversion manual between 3.5 and 4E that clues me in on how useless 3.5 material is going to be. I already have a lot of 3.5 material. I dont know when my resource for 3.5 players are going to dry up when everyone switched over to 4E, so I'm not going to spend a whole lot of money on something that I may never get to use. Expedition to Castle Greyhawk, which was bought on the day before the 4E announcement was effectively my last 3.5 purchase. I'm subscribed to Paizo's Pathfinder but that was almost a month ago and when this first AP is done, I'm killing that subscription as well. I plan on staying on 3.5 but I already have enough material for YEARS of play. Right now, it doesnt look like I have that many years of active 3.5 gaming left, unless D&D players at large reject 4E. It doesnt look like that's going to happen though. [/QUOTE]
