How many game companies you know have provided updates from the old to the new editions and does so with success?I recalled WotC made a 3.5e update of the Forgotten Realms, but I don't know whether it is the title (Player's Guide to Faerun) or the content themselves but it was being razzed by many of the gamers on Wizards' board (not counting those here). I tried defending it but I'm clearly in the minority.AFAIK, among the many Star Wars gamers on this board and Wizards', we are more than happy with the RCR and willing to drop $40 because they listened to our feedback about the OCR and did something about it. Sure, there was a few stoopid loudmouths with the social skill equivalent of a bull in a china shop (whose primary language is based around "you suck!"), but they listened to the mature gamers that want the product improved.That and the fact that I doubt Lucasfilm would let them. After all, it IS a LucasBook.The attitude for D&D revision, as opposed to Star Wars, is that majority is okay with the 3e rules as is. Granted, the 3.5e rules made some slight improvement but the fanbase are not ready for a rules revision to come out three years after the original 3e rules. That's why I put off buying 3.5e D&D until 2005. Of the many business decisons WotC made, this one perplexed me (that and the inclusion of Rokugan in the new OA -- instead of Kara-Tur -- but that's another story).But because D&D is WotC's own acquired IP, and is the "flagship" of the d20 System products, they have provided 3.5e System Reference Document for free. You want to know what change in this one?

Check eBay.If your group doesn't want to use the revised rules, then that's okay. I know of some people not ready for 3e after having invested in 1e and 2e.Well, if you ignore the gunbunnies about how d20 Modern handles the firearms rules, then you're in the clear. There are also other criticisms but I will spare this thread the details.Then that's okay.Well, until someone show me a different approach that actually work and I like it, skill-n-feat is still #1 in my book.</blockquote>
