So, what thinks EN World?

What do I think??

I think it's OUTRAGEOUSLY priced. Ridiculous frills. Impossible to justify. I think it's a WASTE OF MONEY.

And...I think it will fit perfectly on my shelf beside the 3.5 Special Ed PHB and the 3.5 Special Ed DMG! :cool:

Of course I'll get it. It's the third volume of the faux-leather bound core rules. I have to have all three!

LoL
 

Well this is a relief.

When I first read the thread title I wondered who Manuel was. Then I wondered why he was considered a "monster."

Then at the thought of "leatherbound?"

:eek:

I guess that's what I get for looking?

:heh:
 


You know, this isn't the first time this thread's popped up. Same pattern, too. Initial post going "ooh, ahh, new stat blocks and illos!" A few posts going "ooh, maybe I'll have to buy this one". The voice of reason pointing out the text's just been copy/pasted from an old catalog.

Deja vu. Of course, the last incarnation was almost assuredly lost to the Great Server Crash of '06.

Demiurge out.

Same Voice of Reason, I think.

Of course, it has a ribbon, so it must be mine!

Cheers!
 

Damn my collector urges! I'm sure I'll just have to have this as soon as it comes out. Thank the gods I didn't ever get into the whole minis thing or I'd be doomed!
 

I'll be buying this book for my best friend for his birthday, which is shortly after it's release date. I got him the Revised DMG last year, and his wife got him the Revised PHB the year before that. So I will probably ask to look at it after he's opened it, but like the other Revised books, I have neither the money nor the inclination to buy it, new monsters or no.
 

The revised books get marked down months after release by retailers. I saw the Super PHB on sale at a Borders for $24. I was tempted to buy it just to have an extra PHB at the table.

Methinks the Leathe Bound goody books and Pineapple sized minatures are really Gigantic Margin inflated items. Patience can yield the same thing at a much more reasonable price.
