[QUOTE="Brilbadr, post: 4277515, member: 13203"] I think about the change between 3rd and 4th edition and where I want my game to be as a venn diagram. The problem is, that although what I wanted and what 3rd ed provided over-lapped quite a bit, 4th ed overlaps even less. Some of the stuff that is no longer in DnD I agree with, but alot of the new stuff isn't the change I would have made. I'm open to change, I just think they went in the wrong direction. Some of the stuff they have done that is outside 3rd ed I agree with- just not as much I'd hoped. Not enough to get me to stick with the brand. Why not continue to play 3rd ed? because if I'm going to have to generate all my own new content I'm going to be a LOT more picky with my rules system. Why not just play with the content that is there? Done it, (2 home campains+ conan + age of worms) seen the flaws, had enough for the moment. Edit: You see, I would have thought that folks with disposable income might have been a worthy target for this release. I didn't impulse buy 3.x edition, I bought ALL the offical material up until 4th ed was announced. Not novels, but splatbooks, forgotten realms, greyhawk, hardcovers. Now I don't even visit my local gaming stores- because there is no dungeon or dragon mag to pickup religiously... and I've been waiting on 4th ed. [/QUOTE]
