[QUOTE="Turanil, post: 1977448, member: 9646"] I do read regularly on these boards people wondering about the fourth edition of D&D. However, so far my impression is that those people are very rarely interested in a new edition of the game, but are rather afraid that WotC would have to publish a new edition of the game to keep their business running, and that would make all those 3.5 books obsolete. In fact, my own suggestion is this one: if WotC has to sell more books, why not just make a second printing of the exact same 3.5 rules, just changing art and layout. I mean, exactly as was the case when the 2nd edition AD&D books were printed a second time with the black cover hardbacks. In fact I did buy all of them, although all my first printing books were in excellent condition. So, I guess that if WotC would make a second printing of the [I]same[/I] 3.5 rules with new layout, new art, and new type of cover, many people would buy them, yet they wouldn't anger anyone with rendering their collections "obsolete". At least, while I certainly don't want a 4e D&D, I would be much more willing to buy the same with totally different art and layout. Maybe I am a weirdo... :heh: [/QUOTE]
