Also, what games are they wrapping up? D&D? If they mainly play D&D I suspect a new edition of D&D will be under discussion when the time comes - to either convert or start a new campaign.In contrast with your "sour grapes" theory I suspect the people who didn't like 4E will be pretty interested in Next: they didn't like the game, so the company killed it off early and started publicly testing and discussing a new edition that's a lot more like the previous editions. WOTC listened and did exactly what they should have done given the circumstances. Given two years to talk it up and let 4E fade into history I think any lingering resentment will be inconsequential by the time it launches.Also remember that there are supposed to be 5 Sundering adventure packs coming out including stats for Next. #1 is out, #2 is coming in October, and then 3 more on a schedule we have not seen. That may be a way for them to add material to that final packet if they feel a need to get something out there.</blockquote>
