It gives you some insight into what they are planning and the direction they are taking, and by doing so they are showing you what makes 4th Edition different from previous editions. Thus, in that sense, it's a preview.The problem, I believe, stems from what people believe is implicit in calling something a preview. Some think that a preview is only considered such when it provides hard details on particulars in the product, such as game mechanics. Others believe that a preview is anything that reveals information about said product, whether in the form of development diaries/essays or hard details.Another part of the problem is that we got the names of the book, with no details. So, the initial discussion was one composed of no real information, and tons of opinions and speculation. That opinion and speculation was fed more and more until some people take it as the truth, despite the real facts being out there.As for how to successful change the view of an audience that has gotten a faulty picture of the product and it's intended purpose? I dunno... that's why I never went into marketing.</blockquote>
