[QUOTE="Scrivener of Doom, post: 6250251, member: 87576"] I don't think any statements by Mike Mearls at this point are going to satisfy any of the diehard anti-Next brigade like, um, me. Talk is cheap, as the saying goes. What WotC has to do is launch Next with a bang. It can't afford to let Mearls author a couple of dogs-with-fleas like 4E's [I]Keep on the Shadowfell[/I] and [I]Pyramid of Shadows[/I]: this time the products have to be excellent with great word-of-mouth. I'm always on the lookout for good adventures - I run my 4E games using a lot of AD&D material - so I will happily pick up Next adventures or similar products because the rules aren't important. Anyway, great word-of-mouth in the form of reviews and actual play threads may be the thing that attracts the diehard 4E gamers. Conversely, a another KotS or PoS might see the tabletop RPG land-banked for a while by Hasbro. [/QUOTE]
