[QUOTE="Evenglare, post: 5949896, member: 63245"] I do withdraw the most of us. I will add an addendum that every single person I have ever met in real life, and the majority of the people that I talk to on the internet play 3.x or pathfinder / some sort of ogl . That includes but is not limited to OSRIC, castles and crusades, 3.x , pathfinder, 13th age, and a NUMBER of other games that i cant be forced to name off the top of my head. I do apologize for that remark. Sorry it i made the second poster upset. I did not think it ironic to want a unified edition with rules that were already made, which is exactly what OGL tried to do. If you would go to the xkcd comic i linked to you will see exactly why I do not want a 5th edition. I figured my post was rather straight forward. Also it may sound like "YAY lets make 3.x the evergreen edition". This is not necessarily what I was trying to go for. I AM happy that 3.x is recieving a lot of support because I do play that, and to me it is the eternal system, it's how I currently am recruiting new players. But understand if 4th edition would have kept on going and doing their thing I would probably be a 4th edition player full time now. (I do LOVE the system). But then 4th edition pulled out essentials, and while they billed it as their new always on shelf, intro system. This never did stick, and produced yet ANOTHER entry point in the system that , if you never read their blogs about how you could play this along with original 4th edition, it was very confusing for people. So falling to my human drawbacks, yes I do have a bias towards a system I love, its just a thing we humans do. However I do acknowledge there are large fanbases for games such as GURPS or HERO , both systems I love. My comment is related directly towards D&D and it's "iterations" , knock offs, editions and it being public domain. [/QUOTE]
