[QUOTE="kaomera, post: 5489101, member: 38357"] I think that part of the issue may be that some posters are replying to Walking Dad as a spokesman for a larger "anti-essentials crowd". I have gotten the impression from some posters that going forward they don't want to see any material published that would be usable / applicable to the essentials sub-classes. Walking Dad seems to have taken a different approach: that he would like to see more material that is specifically not applicable to the sub-classes, specifically that he'd like to see the pre-essentials build mechanics supported by future products. We won't know 100% until the book(s) are in our grubby little paws, but I think that we will see such support. More importantly I see no actual reason or indication that we wouldn't. However, there is a lot of such ground that doesn't really need to be included in future products, either because it's already been gone over or because it's a bit of a failed concept (in terms of overall use). And aside from this there looks to be plenty of new material for players who aren't using essentials, although I'll admit that this does somewhat depend on your definition of "essentials". There will be those players who will see some of the material included as "damning" the book with the essentials brand. [/QUOTE]
