They've been working on it for two years already! How long do they need? What are they doing up there in Renton, anyways? They're working on 5E - and they have been for two, maybe three, years. That's a lot of man hours and Mountain Dew. Would another year make 5E a better game? Maybe. I won't even say probably, because as every artist or poet knows, sometimes fiddling too much can ruin a piece. At some point they're going to have to take the risk and publish. The key is not as much when, but how - and in what form and order.   @<a href="http://www.enworld.org/forum/member.php?u=6677017" target="_blank">Sword of Spirit</a> , it isn't just about extra sales at GenCon. Its about hype, and building community excitement.Again, I would be very surprised if the hype machine in the form of announcements and previews don't start shortly after the new year. Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe it will be in March or April. Who knows, really. But I think they're probably close enough to finished to get the ball rolling and start pulling together the D&D community again. Its time. We've already gone through two "dead years" - I can't see them going for a third.</blockquote>
