You should see my basement. I have probably 6+ bookcases full of roleplaying game stuff. My wife cant stand it. And dont forget, in addition to all the stuff I buy I also get lots of stuff for free. So much I could never use it all, let alone actually even read most of it. I dont get that as a reason not to change. Not criticizing, just saying. I'm a gamer. I spend tons of money on game stuff. I have subscribed to Dungeon forever. I bought lots and lots of modules from TSR I never ran (including some really lame ones). I have boxed sets full of stuff I've never used. And that is before 3E. I got more of that with 3E. And I wont bat an eye getting more with 4E. I'm a gamer. I buy game stuff. I dont get this "I have to use up what I have first" thought process. Not criticizing, just saying. Its always there for you. It just means you have more stuff to work with. And staying with 3E wont fix that. Lets say there was not a 4E. You would still have more 3E stuff than you could use. Its not like companies would stop making it. You'd never catch up. You wont ever catch up. That sounds like an after the fact excuse to justify not switching. I dont see the logic in it otherwise. I've never yet in all my years met a gamer who said "I have to use the game stuff I have before I buy more." Not until someone wanted an argument not to change editions, that is.... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Not judging. Just saying. Clark</blockquote>
