[QUOTE="AbdulAlhazred, post: 5839024, member: 82106"] I guess it really depends on what you mean by "new game". I think people learn by doing, and it is quite possible to improve things incrementally. It is not going to happen when you go back to square one every time. I'd be perfectly happy with new elements coming into the game with 5e, if they add something. I'm also perfectly happy with existing elements being retained because they work fine. For those things that apparently don't work fine many are STILL improvements on what came before, so why not just make them even better? Even things that many people seem to feel don't work are often perfectly good but don't work because of something else or some plainly obvious minor issue that can be easily fixed. Progress builds on progress. You don't build a house by laying a foundation, finding one brick out of place and ripping the whole thing up and starting over. But anyway, what IS a 'new game'? Just how much different from the 'old game' does it have to be before it is a new game and not a revision of an old game? [/QUOTE]
