[QUOTE="BryonD, post: 6567084, member: 957"] This seems to be quite a non sequitur. Some unnamed forum "fired" 3e fans, so you post on a website founded on the launch of 3E that the internet *might* have hurt 3E's reception. At the end of the day the biggest thing 3E had going for it was that a a very large percentage of the fanbase thought it was a really good game. The biggest thing 4E had going against it was that not nearly large enough of a percentage of the fanbase thought it was a really good game. It is funny how the conversation keeps get pushed to everything except "how many people actually enjoyed the game?". That was the controlling factor. And again, you used to be so positive about 4E, the growing fanbase, everyone would switch as soon as their existing 3E campaign wrapped up, it goes on and on. You were certain that things were very good. You never suggested in any way that 3E had been anything other than a smash, you just claimed that 4E was an great extension of it. Now that the ship has sailed on that, you've gone all sour grapes and everything is negative. And you seem quite fixated on every post not talking about 4E or 5E, but finding some contortion or non sequitur to suggest 3e "tanked" just the same or otherwise wasn't the smash hit that it was.
