[QUOTE="Shadeydm, post: 4214039, member: 44243"] Although I don't yet know if I will be switching or not (the PCs in my homebrew are level 6 (about to enter the Necromancer's Spike) and still going strong) I have preordered the 3 core books for the following reasons. 1. I startd playing 1E way back in the day and despite my apprehensions about each new edition that followed (especially 3.5) I still ended up switching upon reading the core books through. 2. Having included some of the 4e precursors (like Bo9S elements and reserve feats) into the current game they have generally been well recieved. 3. Having played and enjoyed SWSE I hope 4E will be similarly enjoyable. 4. About half of our groups players seem excited about 4E so I am sure at least one of them will end up running a game. 5. The stated design goal of reducing DM preperation is a positive for me. 6. The possibility of a well done GH release would almost certainly convince me to run a 4E game. 7. I will never find out if the game is really any good or not with buying and reading it and $62.00 isn't going to kill me to find out. The way I see it people who have playtested it have heaped so much love on it, even if it sucks it's just got to have a few redeeming qualities/ideas I can use to make my 3.5 games better. But yes until I have the books in my hand and have read them cover to cover I will remain a $E skeptic. [/QUOTE]
