[QUOTE="Razz, post: 3000562, member: 3014"] I totally agree. 3E is where I stop, I will only look into 4E Forgotten Realms products, and it'd have to heavily filled with more lore than crunch for me to actually purchase it. I'm not shelling tons of money for yet ANOTHER edition. The system works fine as it is. Why? Because, really, the system has barely changed since 3.5E began. The only thing changed was merely more and more sets of options to "install" in your games. You don't want them, don't buy them, you do, then buy it. I recently bought "Tome of Battle" and "Dragons of Faerun" because I find both awesome material to add to my games. It's not making 3.5E any more difficult than with just the 3 core books. Some people just fail to realize that, though. As my signature says, there is nothing you can do with 4E that 3E cannot already accomplish by using the following: ---House Rules ---Unearthed Arcana ---3rd Party Products That's pretty much all you need to make 3.5E your very own version of D&D. The need for 4E I don't understand and never will, except for the fact that they want to get more money. It being a corporation Now if they could license D&D altogether to someone else to take over, someone smaller and someone that loves the game enough to treat it properly for the sake of everyone involved whether veteran, novice, or newb would not be a bad idea. And I agree, WotC/Hasbro needs to stop it with their high hopes of turning D&D into a super-powered money-making machine. They need to be happy with where it's at now and leave it alone. Also, if 4E is to 3.5E what 3.5E is to 3.0E, I MIGHT actually switch over. But that is if, and only if, they can provide downloads of updating all the books everyone has most likely purchases into the 4E material. [/QUOTE]
