I think we can safely say that 5E is a success, but will it lead to a new Golden Era?

[QUOTE="Imaro, post: 6361531, member: 48965"] I'm confused about how this post has nothing to do with the claims you and [MENTION=996]Tony Vargas[/MENTION] have been making... I don't think [MENTION=42582]pemerton[/MENTION] has claimed to know why 4e was pulled after such as short run... so no, I don't think it applies to what he has been discussing in this thread. Did you read the post that was linked to?? Or are you purposefully ignoring it? Okay so you are purposefully ignoring information that doesn't support your position because you "don't buy it"... fair enough I guess but then I guess that means providing any furhtr evidence would be pointless. I think WotC has taken a gamble that has, from marketing to public play test to rules design, IMO been subtle but well thought out and pretty well executed (especially compared to the roll out of the previous edition), contrary to what you and [MENTION=996]Tony Vargas[/MENTION] have been claimed Eh, for those who really like 5e... it is "rocking the boat"... for those who didn't like 4e and like 5e it's rocking the boat even more but in a positive as opposed to negative direction. I think you're letting personal bias for how you feel about 5e cloud your view of what's really happening here (which is ironic since I get the impression that's what you're claiming others are doing when it comes to the ending of 4e). Just because it's a more subdued roll out without all the flash-bang of the previous edition (which many felt backfired for WotC) doesn't mean there aren't aggressive goals for the game or innovations being made. One innovation I don't see being discussed much yet is the Morningstar/Dungeonscape tools which WotC has invested in and so far seem to be better planned out and implemented from a software development and utility perspective than DDI was(of course instead of declaring in their books when the tool will be ready and failing like they did last edition, WotC has learned like many companies to play their cards close until it's ready)...
