[QUOTE="Piratecat, post: 3750411, member: 2"] The interesting thing here is that while 3e does have some problems, they're minor issues compared to earlier editions. 3e and 3.5 are [i]damn[/i] good game systems. Don't think that WotC isn't intimately aware of this fact. That means that for something to make the 4e cut, it's got to feel more fun to the designers and developers than what we have now. Will they get every one right? Certainly not for everyone, as different people like different campaign styles. But my expectation is that they'll have a better game when they're done. It's possible they won't, but if that happens then everyone will keep playing 3.5. With a huge vested interest in making this the best game possible, they're certainly targeting the few weaknesses in 3e. [/QUOTE]
