[QUOTE="Man in the Funny Hat, post: 3790484, member: 32740"] My targetted group of players had even forgotten that they'd even moved to 3.5. About a week after 4E was announced I told them, since I knew they did NOT know - their concerns are for WoW, not D&D. The reaction was... interesting. One player, though he hasn't ACTUALLY played in 4 years seemed to immediately dislike even the idea of it. Like it was an annoyance to him that such a thing could happen - even though he wasn't even playing the game at the time. A few days later he'd stopped in to a bookstore or gamestore somewhere and told me he'd seen "the new version" of D&D on the shelf. I had to explain to him that this was 3.5. "When did they do that?" "YEARS ago. 2003, maybe?" Another player hasn't been in the game at all since 1E so it would all be new to him anyway. Yet another just wants to play the same ranger/archer character shes always played and won't otherwise care. NONE of them are really AWARE of 4E, even though I've told them it's coming. That will change with time but it will definitely be just me who keeps on top of the changing times. [/QUOTE]
