[QUOTE="justanobody, post: 4555682, member: 70778"] 1- Even more fractured as those who want to stick with 4th edition fight with those that move on to 5th edition, and some older editions players jump in with 5th edition. 2- They will probably not look back, like many that moved to C&C and HackMaster didn't really look back at 3rd edition. 3- Printing cost drive physical book prices up and digital media replaces it all on the VistaPodKindle made by Apple (a subsidiary of Time Warner-Google). 4- OGL still hanging on by the hair of its teeth, while the GSL is terminated. No licensing outside of WotC and special licenses will exist. 5- (see #3) 6- No change in piracy attempts, but the VistaPodKindle will only download and not allow copying or printing of the materials. 7- The VistaPodKindle will support video conferencing, so online gaming will be done directly through it. 8- The web only content of DDI's past will be delivered through the VistaPodKindle and WotC will get a portion of the sales of each copy. 9a- Miniatures will be replaced with icons on the VistaPodKindle whiteboard. 9b- The VistaPodKindle will have an addon to touch a power when used and refresh all powers when an hours rest has been taken to fully heal as indicated by touching the proper button on the screen, and "cards" will no longer be needed as the VistaPodKindle will display the information upon request. 9c- Magic will not appear on the VistaPodKindle so see A & B of this section. 9d- (see #4) 10- Due to the video conferencing and whiteboard built into the VistaPodKindle MMOs will be a thing of the past for all but the hard core gamers sitting in dark rooms tethered to a big screen photonic SHDHTV. 11- Depends on the amount of flashy animated graphics and imagery in the books.... 12- (see #4) 13- ?????
