[QUOTE="Evenglare, post: 6119812, member: 63245"] 5th edition does nothing that I couldnt get from my other D&D editions. Of course I'm going to buy it because I can't get any new material for campaign settings. They seem to want to keep refeeding us the rules so we can rebuy campaign settings. I dont CARE which edition I play, I just wish they would keep with one and start producing adventures and fluff. I mean when 4th edition came along I was fine with it, they promised to balance everything and get rid of the awful rules like grapple in 3rd edition. Fine just.... give me the worlds and produce new content for them. Well it took them several years to get all the campaign settings out, and really didnt give anything new, I didn't even recieve any Dragonlance content until what.. a month ago? So then essentials comes out and they promise it's going to be the evergreen edition of D&D. GREAT, STICK WITH IT. But no.. of course that didn't pan out. Now 5th edition is coming out. GREAT STICK WITH IT. PRODUCE ADVENTURES FOR THE LOVE OF GOD. This is why pathfinder is doing so well. They produce quality adventures. I dare say that pathfinder doesn't even CARE about the rules, they just wanted to stick with something so they can produce stories, which is what D&D should always be about. 5th edition just PLEASE stick with whatever ruleset you are going to give us. I seems to me like Mearls and the team are always thinking of something new, and abandon what they are working on and are like " LOOK LOOK AT THIS NEW THING" . Which is fine, but when you start producing new editions every half a decade and not really completing the ones you have, it's annoying. REALLY annoying from a consumer view. I understand that I can take their new campaign stuff and hack it so it will work with whatever rule set I am using, but I am a busy guy. I don't have the time I used to. I buy this stuff so I DONT have to spend time converting material to a new ruleset AND make stories my party likes. It kind of pisses me off that 4th edition didnt have a dungeon master guide that fleshed out the epic level campaigns.
