Now whether it means new edition or a tweaking of 4E only they know. All I'm asking that I dont think alot of people here are asking themselves is this: Why the talking out loud about D&D design? What's more he's not really talking about the design that exists. He's talking about possible CHANGES or TWEAKS to the design.The other thing here is that he's not really offering up detailed how too's on how to make what he's talking about a reality in your games at present. If he were doing that, I'd say that 4E is fairly safe and long for this world in it's present form. The fact that these articles are coming fairly consistently instead has me thinking that this is part of the design process for either a separate game, a series of mods and tweaks (like an Unearthed Arcana for 4E) or a new version of D&D. It seems like he's putting the feelers out for what might work and what gets panned by the people reading it. I dont play 4E and nor do I have any intention of doing so. but reading those design entries are interesting because it's reading him go into the process of design and what he thinks D&D is and should be. Some of the stuff I agree with and other parts of it has me thanking God that he's nowhere near the development of the game that I enjoy playing. Still, like I said it's interesting reading.</blockquote>
