[QUOTE="danzig138, post: 1008840, member: 3595"] I hope this doesn't sound to rude. . .Hop to it. Money where your mouth is and all that. With the OGL and the SRD, there is nothing stopping you from making a "better" rules revision yourself. And I assume you'll release it for free so no one gets ripped off. . .:D Personally, I don't see how anyone who frequents these forums, the WotC forums, or a host of other similar forums can feel ripped off. It's not like we haven't been shown a lot, if not most of the changes. I just don't feel a lot of sympathy for the people who have read the boards, seen the changes, and then cry about the books being a rip-off. As far as the art goes, a topic I've seen repeatedly, I just want to scream at people to go buy a coffee table art book. IMO, 80% of the art from D&D, O-3 has been crap. Brom's DS work was real good, but other than that. . .But this has never bothered me. I don't buy game books for the art. I buy them for rules and such.
