[QUOTE="ECMO3, post: 9653873, member: 7030563"] That is a fine "what if" but those claiming success are basing that claim on what did happen every time WOTC released an entirely new edition, not what could have happened. In addition to overprinting, there were serious quality problems with 2E as well. The most famous example is the Jungles of Chult, which didn't even ship with the map of Chult referenced in the book! We could "what if" the owners didn't make decisions on internal playtesting that killed product quality. You could also "what if" the decisions to change the game to please the religious zealots - "what if" 2E still had gods, demons, devils, half-orcs and assassins? At the end of the day though, when you are asking "what if" you are basically admitting that what actually happened with the new release was not a success, for whatever reason. Sure, that is why I said WOTC is 1 for 1 on revisions (3.0 to 3.5) and not 2 for 2. [/QUOTE]
