Paizo does it, along with many other publishers. And as I've stated a few times, I want the whole shebang with the classic versions of each class, superior weapons, rituals, core magic items and whatnot. And I cannot believe that I'd be the only guy who wants to see the core rules brought up to date with a new printing. It's not just those guys who were "naysayers" or "sitting on the fence" when 4E came out and would now want to try the "classic" 4E; I'd guess that more than a handful of 4E fans have books that have become worn in use (esp. due to using a pencil/marker for revisions and errata). How about those GURPS/RQ/Dread/Ars Magica/Etcetera fans (veteran gamers) who would now like to play 4E?Yeah, 'Essentials' may be a better fit for total newbies, but then again that was never an issue for me; rather, I pointed out that WoTC is missing out on those who want to play with the "classic" rules and classes, because for them 'Essentials' may easily be either too simplified and "specialized" or they just don't want to pay for "non-errated" books and print out and mark down hundreds of pages of changes. As I've posted, if WoTC doesn't want to invest in reprinting the core rules, one solution might be to release one or two extra supplements in the product line to cover the "classic" stuff.</blockquote>
