[QUOTE="Imban, post: 4911916, member: 29206"] I put down two things: Release fifth edition, because almost every series eventually ends up with one lousy game, and it's no reason to pronounce damnatio memoriae on the series. Just don't play the game you hate. (See: Final Fantasy 2, Heroes of Might and Magic 4, probably many others that don't leap to mind instantly) Bring back PDFs. I play online only, so having physical copies of all my material is a pain, as is scanning it in manually. I thought about but did not put down bringing back the OGL, because a lot of the same types of 3rd-party products which I liked under the OGL are available under the new GSL. I am still slightly uncomfortable about the provisions in the GSL which are going to make a lot of those products much harder to acquire if I'd want to continue playing 4e beyond its designated end date, but it's not an absolute deal-breaker. On the other hand, no third-party support for a future edition would make me very unlikely to buy in. (And before you point out that no other company does that, Exalted 2e is basically in every way a worse game for not having more Charms because WW won't publish crunch-only books and so Charmsets very rarely, if ever, get expanded upon. The lack of "third-party support" there actually [b]does[/b] bother me a lot.) [/QUOTE]
