[QUOTE="baconcow, post: 5332772, member: 95414"] @ Obryn & AngryMojo, While I agree with the advantages that everyone is stating with 4e: Character Builder and Monster Builder online. The only thing is I WANT books and I don't want to be left out of PHB characters. I want to have the books so that I can sit and read through the characters when I am not on my computer, whether it be the new Essentials PB's, 3 PHB's from 4e, or the Core book from Pathfinder. I know I can pay $35 and get a one-month subscription and the Rules Compendium, but that leaves out so much offline content which I would enjoy to have. I used to buy Legend of Zelda players guides just for the fluff and content. As far as local players are concerned, I only know one who plays 3.5e. I am sure I would find some more 3.5/4e players if I go to some of the FLGS's and post a player-finder post. @ Jools, I have no interest in getting a starters kit. Also, if you get rid of the Eberron books, the list I have is pretty much what you suggested (minus the Red Box and including the Monster Vault). The WoW comments were from a few Reviews and Forum comments that I read about 4e. I didn't see it as a negative thing about the comment. But, having briefly played WoW, I was curious about where it was deriving from after reading it several times. I would personally enjoy an RPG more like Guild Wars, Baldur's Gate II, or Diablo II (I know D2 is really more of an arcade RPG feel, but I still enjoyed it). Thanks a lot for the responses. I'll thank you all properly within 24 hours (ran out of thumbs). I appreciate the time put into them. [/QUOTE]
