[QUOTE="The Eternal GM, post: 4120380, member: 52760"] If us having a stronger and more unified hobby-culture means everyone has to play 4th Edition, like it's some holy grail game just because it's the new edition... Then forget it, let the hobby die. I've been interested in 4th Edition all along. I'm not as fussed lately, but mostly because my B/X games are going so well and nothing in 4th Edition news has really caught my eye as an improvement. The OP's message carries the vibe that we ought to all accept 4th Edition regardless of quality, pack up our other games and I don't possibly see how that is a good thing. Ultimately, I'll play what I damn well like. MY hobby might outlive THE hobby for this outrageous defection! But that's all I care about. This hobby has a wealth of problems, mostly down to social perception, fueled by gamers who won't admit they game, and publishers who release garbage... I don't contribute to either problem, I play my games, I enjoy them, that's MY hobby. [/QUOTE]
