[QUOTE="El Mahdi, post: 5634584, member: 59506"] Well, while I'm not necessarily representative of everyone that plays older editions, and even though I am doing [I]just fine[/I]...I can think of lot's of things that WotC could offer me (that I don't or won't buy now): [LIST=1] [*]First and Foremost, I want to be able to legally purchase older edition materials, in a downloadable electronic format, that I no longer have, never had but wanted (just hadn't gotten to them yet), and have access to them for new players coming into the game. (Yes, people can and do come into the game as new players through older editions...) [*]If the above happened, then I would buy a DDI sub in a New York minute if it had older edition support. WotC could offer me, and I would most definitely pay for:[LIST=1] [*]Dungeon and Dragon with occasional older edition support or included conversion info with articles. [*]Older Edition rules support on the VTT. [*]Houserules support on the VTT [*]Older Edition Compendiums [*]Older Edtion Character Builders, Monster Builders, and Encounter Builders with Houserule capability. [*]A Character Visualizer (from the original plans for DDI) [*]A 3D VTT (also from the original plans for DDI) [*]Virtual Minis for the VTT (based on the minis that only WotC has copyright to) [/LIST] [/LIST]Do that, and I'd even start buying the occasional 4E product again (or 5E if that's what is out by then) - even though I don't necessarily play in that system (just like I did before the pdf fiasco). Seems like a good enough reason to me... [/QUOTE]
