Thats assuming WOTC keeping the brand and all.Its true that theres usualy large gaps of time between editions, but its also true that D&D has never been owned by a single company, especially a huge one like Hasbro for that long.Also, Hasbro thinks in terms of MTG and Pokemon. Put out new sets as frequently as possible to keep people buying. I think they try to put some of that on D&DThat being said, I dont really care about timing, only quality. a 4th edition would almost certainlly be d20, and if it improves upon the problems still existant in D&D (there are plenty) and especially if it sacrifices some of the sacred cows that have needed slaughtering for so long I dont care when they put it out and would probably buy it (or at least the PH) as soon after or at the release as I had the money to do so (even tho I dont really play currently).Of course maybe thats part of why. Since I am not in an ongoing game and rarely get to play, I dont really have to worry about being "forced" into changing over. And I enjoy reading RPG products even if I dont use them.However, if it retains all the sacred cows I will be VERY annoyed.</blockquote>
