[QUOTE="Oni, post: 755748, member: 380"] Personally I'm a little bitter about 3.5. I mean WotC isn't really doing anything wrong by releasing a revision. However, I remain annoyed. The problem is this I'm not terribly fond of some of the changes I've heard about that they are enacting and so do not feel terribly compelled to purchase the new books which have very little bang for the buck for me. I'd be happy to stick with 3e. The problem is that already some people I game with are wanting to move over to 3.5. In a face to face group I could live with this, I could deal with because books can be shared, but I primarily game online and so having my own copy is pretty necessary, and as far as I'm concerned the SRD doesn't cut it. I kind of feel like I've a choice of shelling out money for new books or getting shoved to the periphery of the 3e community. This may seem silly to some of you, but still I have a certain feeling of dread associated with the coming of 3.5. I wish I had the sense of excitement I had with the release of 3e, when I would check Eric's page everyday for the latest news. As it is the changes are enough to make me feel left out by not having it, but not enough to allow me to buy it without feeling cheated. Anyway, perhaps I'm being irrational, but that is the way I feel. [/QUOTE]
