[QUOTE="Dire Bare, post: 9157135, member: 18182"] Please. Early editions of D&D not having as much full-color art as RPG books do today isn't some purposeful stylistic choice . . . the game and industry was in its infancy, the folks making the books didn't know what they were doing, and they didn't have the art budgets books today enjoy. The only RPG books I've noticed that are going light on the art in modern times are some OSR titles, which are catering to a very specific, and very small, niche among gamers. Folks like you who are nostalgic for the old school days. There is nothing wrong with your preferences, but once again, it's not all about you. Most folks prefer a fully illustrated, full color game book, and so that is what nearly every publisher tries their best to deliver. To try and convince anyone that [I]art doesn't matter[/I] . . . tilting at windmills again man. [/QUOTE]
