[QUOTE="ComradeGnull, post: 5747733, member: 6685694"] I voted yes primarily because of curiosity over the direction that WoTC is going to take for D&D. I currently foresee that they could either make me interested in committing to the game again with a new version, or pretty much kill my interest in it altogether and leave me playing Pathfinder exclusively in the 'D&D-esque' space. I will echo one of the previous posters comments- there is an underlying tension in how games are published when there are big companies behind them that need continuing (and growing) income streams. On the one hand, WoTC seems to have come up with a viable solution to that income stream problem by focusing on player options and building out more and more expansions. On the other hand, as an old guy whose interests in RPGs is no longer the same (in either volume or orientation) as it was when I was 12 or 13, I'm not sure that that is the sort of game that is for me anymore.
