If I don't buy 3.5...

[Moe Ronalds]

What will the negative impact be? Will I simply be ostracized from polite gaming soceity? Will WotC come and beat me as I lie asleep at night? Will all new books make 0 sense to me? Will the hand of god come and smite me? Or will there be, as I assume, no negative impact???

 

[Knight Otu]

What will the negative impact be?

WotC makes a bit less money.

You shouldn't really experience any negative impact, as the important things will be in the SRD.

At worst, the new material that is based off of 3.5 might be a little hard to use, depending on how drastic the changes really are.

You forgot option 6:

Ninjas invade in the night and steal your pizza toppings.

Other than that, not much difference, though you may want to be informed on the changes, thanks to the free SRD update that will be available in the same month.

 

[Tiefling]

Polite gaming society will come and smite you as you lie asleep at night.

I think that depends, in part, on whether you run around shouting, "3.5e sux, 3e rox!"

*puts megaphone down.* Thanks for the tip.

 

[Ulrick]

Everybody else is going to buy 3.5.

Your not cool unless you buy 3.5 D&D.

 

[Moe Ronalds]

Hah! Your plot has been foil-ed Ulrick!


I wasn't cool to begin with. Neener neener neener

 

[Dark Psion]

But what if we go with Monte's "Arcana Unearthed" instead of 3.5e?

Will we be "on the cutting edge" or or just "out on a limb"?

Right now, AU is on my must buy list, 3.5e is on my wait and see list.
