[QUOTE="CasvalRemDeikun, post: 5804955, member: 83969"] All I want is for them to consider all editions, not just one or two, when they make the game. Pandering to just one edition over the others is going to piss off a lot of people. They want to capture the feel of D&D as a whole, 1E-2E-3E-4E, and that means some stuff might not be exactly what people want. Ignoring 4E is not going to make the game sell any better than ignoring 1E, 2E, or 3E will. Modularity to make the game feel more like one edition will need to be present in the core book in order to achieve that. They also need to make the game new enough that people will see it as a worthy investment. And they also need to figure out how to make the game grow. And the whole "your edition" and "my edition" BS doesn't help anyone. 5E isn't going to be 1E-revisited anymore than it will be 2E, 3E, or 4E-revisited. It is going to be NEW. Sure, it will have stuff the 1E alums won't care for, or the 2E alums, 3E alums, or 4E alums. But they are trying to design it so that ALL players will find the majority of it to their liking, and the rest will be able to be excised out. [/QUOTE]
