[QUOTE="am181d, post: 6222543, member: 3576"] So to clarify, all the people who've worked on D&D over the last 30+ years have done so out of "greed and nothing else"??? None of them were people who genuinely liked the game and wanted to make it better? I think it's fair to call that "demonstrably false." You're also twisting basic definitions to the point of uselessness. For instance, you're implying that 2nd Edition isn't REAL D&D, but it is a different game that is ALSO called D&D. So what do you call Poker or Chess or Monopoly or Basketball??? These are all games that have gone through numerous changes since their initial creation. Is the version that you play today somehow not the REAL version? And are these versions the result of "the power of greed and nothing else"?
