The bigger the changes, the more people you lose. On the other hand, an entirely new player is as likely to buy into an all-new setting as one that has been going for 20 years (perhaps more likely, since they won't have 20 years of canon to catch up on).So, if the goal is to essentially start over with a new setting, surely it's better to do just that?(I don't believe that that is what WotC are doing here. The changes, although significant, will not be a complete rewrite of the setting. At a guess, I would say it will remain somewhere between 50% and 80% the same. But, that is purely a guess.)</blockquote>
