[QUOTE="malkav666, post: 5808375, member: 70565"] Well for those of us that didn't really get off on 4e its been 12 years (longer for those that didn't get off on 3e either) since there was a version of D&D that we really wanted to play fresh and shiny off the press. I am not trying to knock 4e or fans of 4e, but a lot of folks did not like 4e and voted with their wallets to make it go away. And now that it is in fact going away, sooner rather than later, upset does not accurately describe me. I am very interested in 5e. I hope its a good game that makes me want fling d20's into the early morn'. For a lot of us, its time for a new shot at D&D. I wouldn't worry too much. I think the 4e folks will get a good bit of support from the folks over at WOTC. It does not seem that ignoring/abandoning the die hard fans and current edition paying customers so you can try and make a game for some other market segment you would also like to make your customers seems like a very good idea. Oh wait... In all seriousness though if you already dropped your cash they cannot take your books from you if you don't board the new 5e cashboat. They can however take away all your digital bits that are serverside at WOTC. But I don't even think they will do that. As long as you are willing to keep paying that subscription I am pretty sure they will leave it up. Thats a very great revenue stream for them at this point. So don't be upset, hobbies are for relieving stress, not for causing it. Just play games and smile. love, malkav [/QUOTE]
