[QUOTE="Sotik, post: 7140853, member: 6889100"] I am new to the D&D scene so 5E is really my only taste of the brand but I am aware of the life spans of the older editions. However something I see WoTC doing with this edition that I think will change things is their embrace of technology. While some of the older editions have used technology it's not to the extreme as I have seen here. With unearthed arcana, and their beta of their new D&D app I think it will be a lot easier for them to update core rules, and add races, classes and so on then it had been in the past. See my theory here is thay with older editions they relied more on book releases to make changes to their editions. Now with an app all it takes is an update, and with WoTC being a company that wants to make money I could see editions changes essentially turning into a type of paid DLC thay costs little to publish versus books. So in short, while I think 6E will happen. I feel if they milk and make the best of the technology they are starting to embrace more, 5E may last longer then predicted. [/QUOTE]
