[QUOTE="ShinHakkaider, post: 3796645, member: 9213"] I know this isnt aimed at me, but I feel the need to respond anyway. I pretty much feel the exact same way that Davemage does. I buy adventures mostly. I buy adventures because I'm not inclined nor do I have the time to create my own anymore. So I buy them. I buy Dungeon. I buy Goodman Games DCC. I buy Green Ronin. I buy WOTC (Expedition to Castle Ravenloft and Greyhawk Ruins). I even buy Necromancer Games (Rappan Athuk:Reloaded). I buy these things because at some point I plan on being able to use them without having to put a lot of work into converting them into another system, or re-writing statblocks or having to re-asses how skills or special abilities work. Because, for me, if I gotta go and redo all that stuff I was better off NOT buying the material and creating my own. You see what I'm saying. I buy for ease of use. This edition upgrade pretty much makes everything that's not fluff USELESS. So that is why I'm not going to 4th Edition. I have a lot of material left to use and as long as I can put together a 3.5 group I'll do so. If 4E was such that it would still allow me to use my 3.5 material with next to no or minimal conversion I would be more inclined to upgrade. But at this point, according to previews and the play test blogs it might as well be a different system. Now you may or may not still get that. Whether that has to do with your decision to make 4E products yourself, I dont know. I'm not accusing, I'm just saying. As someone who owns quite a few Necro Games books and modules I can say that I'll miss not supporting your 4E products but this is what it is and it sounds like that I'm not your target market anymore anyway. For me it was about good product and ease of use. Once again you take that ease of use out of it then you lose (lost) me. Not complaining, I'm just saying. [/QUOTE]
