[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 9480609, member: 6801845"] I'll ask again. What is the option? Your claim that they are somehow "abandoning" experienced DMs is just odd. What exactly are they supposed to admit? That some of the book will be geared to new DMs? Do you really need them to tell you that? On the flip side, are they supposed to have multiple DMGs, all targeted at DMs with different levels of experience? How would that even work? It's not that they don't care about you and there will be new rules for veteran DMs if they want it. I may not use the bastion rules for my current campaign because it doesn't really fit, but it could for other campaigns. There will be updated rules for magic items and crafting. We don't know what else will be included, but this DMG will have the highest page count ever while also being the cheapest ever if you account for inflation. I have no idea what you think they should do instead, what you think they are not saying that shouldn't be self evident, or why any of this is an issue. [/QUOTE]
