Echohawk said:Good point. If you look look at it that way, there frequency of "generic" 3.x products and 2nd Edition products is remarkably similar. Leaving out the adventurers, most of the setting-specific material (Greyhawk, Realms, Planescape, etc.) but leaving in the "one" shots settings (Jakandor, Ghostwalk and Dragon Mountain), there are about 110 2nd Edition products vs. about 60 3.x Edition products (or 0.80 per month vs. 0.93). If you add in the non-adventure Forgotten Realms products, the numbers are roughly 180 2nd Edition vs. 80 3.x Edition (1.30 vs 1.25 per month).
But your point about there still being a while until the next edition is well made. So many books...
also some of your 2edADnD list includes novels. Cormyr was a novel for instance. And the TSR Jam 1999 was a catalog. WotC releases catalogs and i didn't see you include that for the 2000ed.
but i agree so far the numbers aren't close.
