[QUOTE="MortalPlague, post: 6045880, member: 62721"] I think that's been a problem for them in the past. For instance, there was a very short gap between 3rd and 4th edition. The result was a game that could have used a bit more polish. I like that they've come out and said that they aren't planning to release Next for another 2 years or so. The long gap will give them enough time to get things right, make things polished, and I suspect, put out a hell of a game. In addition, maybe the gap could be good for D&D? In my group, we go in cycles. We'll play D&D for a while, then we'll run a campaign in another system; Mutants & Masterminds, Star Wars, Shadowrun, etc. After a little while away, we return to D&D, refreshed and excited to get back into it. My experience here has been different. When I was at PAX, I was running the D&D Next event as a volunteer DM. The demand was huge. We had a lineup, we had to turn people away due to a lack of space. I had a full table of 6 players, and I saw many such tables all around the hall. [/QUOTE]
