[QUOTE="Imaro, post: 3987140, member: 48965"] My group (which consists of me and 4 other players) feels about 4e as follows... PLYR 1 (Male 27 yrs old): He follows most but not all of the 4e news and feels WotC is gearing up to take D&D, if not fully, then mostly online (and no not in the sense of a MMORPG). He feels that within a couple of years most of the products and releases from WotC will be digital and will require one to have a subscription with the DDI to fully participate in the hobby. Interesting enough he works in IT (as do I) and I can see where he's coming from. He really would rather stick with the pretty massive library of 3.5 that our group has, and feels that those who join our group can play 3.5. PLYR 2 (Female 24 yrs old): Doesn't follow most of the 4e news but has gleaned enough from me and player 1 to form an oppinion. It basically boils down to the fact that she has fun playing the game with our group and the rules in the end can be changed or modified for what we like. She also finds the non-D&D games we play (especially nChangeling and MRQ Lankhmar) more fun and interesting than D&D so...she really feels no need for us to switch to D&D 4e. PLYR's 3 & 4 (Both male ages 18 and 17): They just enjoy playing and being a part of our group. So in the end I as defacto DM/GM would really have to be blown away by 4e for me to force everyone to switch. I also am starting to feel that no rules system will ever be the perfect one and at a certain point you just gotta go with what you enjoy. For my group, that seeems to be moving with different companies and a diffeent direction than WotC. So yeah I didn't pre-order and I will definitely be looking through the books at Borders before I make a decision. [/QUOTE]
