[QUOTE="Mercurius, post: 8282990, member: 59082"] OK. Well, I think they are adding things, just not the things you want, which sound like more crunchy bits. I am curious, also, to see what they might do with the hypothetical (I think, likely) revised core rulebooks. That would be the opportune time for revisions, if not "major modules." But you are right: it can't be what everyone wants. But that has been true of every edition. The brilliance of 5E is that they found a nice middle ground, between "traditional" D&D and "new bells and whistles" of 21st century D&D. The people they seem to be serving the least are those wanting a lot of crunch. But I think they are, at least among the current fanbase, a minority. That may change, though, but we haven't seen any sign of it, as far as I can tell. And of course the reason they aren't serving up more crunch has been stated many times in this thread: it is intrinsically tied to what makes the edition so successful. [/QUOTE]
