[QUOTE="SSquirrel, post: 1456132, member: 5202"] For me dead would mean no longer officially supported by the company. However, that just leaves the product "mostly dead"(blatant Princess Bride theft). The product isn't truly dead until no one anywhere plays it. He doesn't need to use 3E to enjoy DS> He doesn't need to convert jack. All he needs are a boxed set and his imagination if he desires. If completing his collection of DS gives him more goodies he wants to run, it keeps the setting alive FOR HIM. Having the material, getting to play it...this is the only thing important. He could run it all under OD&D if he really desired, but that would just be silly. Maybe he converted it all over to GURPS or Palladium. Tri Stat? Options are endless. From his posts it sounds like he kept it healthy and alive (for himself and his group at least) by buying the prudtcs and continuing to enjoy the game in whatever fashion he liked. Looking at his original post you quoted he said "I support a DS revival". This makes no statement at all about if he's done any work on conversions or anything, but that if a revival of interest in DS were to happen he would be cheering and applauding and yelling "Go Team!!".
