I see ongoing "official" support - meaning keeping core books in print, occasionally releasing (or allowing others to release) new settings and-or adventures, and so on - as essential for every edition.  WotC are slowly starting to realize this, judging by their reprinting of some core stuff from earlier editions; now they just need to put out some new material.  If they can find a way to design adventures that can span over multiple editions that'd help; they seem to have started that process a bit as well with these new adventures that can work with 3e, 4e and 5e - my only complaint with how they're doing these is you have to go online to get the conversions: I want it all included on paper in the module.  But if they can do adventures with built-in conversion from 1e-2e-5e I'll give 'em a long hard look.2. To those complaining about adventures referencing non-core books, consider this - in 1e days in one respect the reverse was true as some non-core hardcovers referenced the adventures: many of the monsters in FF and MMII are lifted straight from the adventure modules where they first appeared.3. Having converted numerous things (mostly adventures) to 1e from each of 2e, 3e, and 4e I can say without doubt that 4e is the hardest to convert.Lan-"2 years of playtesting and the over-under on the first 5e errata update is still about 2 months after general release"-efan</blockquote>
