[QUOTE="AZRogue, post: 4121279, member: 3963"] These are my thoughts on the issue: I think 4E provides a very nice system that will be fun to play (my group has completely enjoyed our playtests) and will appeal to new gamers (I have a new player in my group, a current member's cousin, who has never played RPGs but loves playing our 4E demos) and old time DnD players who don't enjoy an over dose of complexity. But I'm very glad that 3E will live on as well because, IMO, the awesomeness that is the OGL deserves that. It was a bold move, and 3E was a bold system that tried to make unified rules for a host of situations. This, itself, is the problem my group has with it, especially at higher level, but it is a remarkable achievement regardless and the OGL was such a great concept that it really deserves more than to just fade away. Everybody should play the games they like and after the dust settles I think we'll find ourselves able to enjoy the fact that we are all gamers instead of focusing on those separate things that define our individual style. 4E is offering me something that I've wanted for a while now. 3E is probably the most powerful incarnation of DnD ever conceived. They both deserve to exist. Hell, I still play AD&D quite often, and like it. :) [/QUOTE]
