[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 6055245, member: 7006"] I really couldn't care less about the 5E game itself. I like roleplaying games. I like owning them. I like playing them. I'm going to buy 5E regardless. I'm going to play 5E regardless. I'm going to enjoy 5E regardless. Because every game is enjoyable if you have the right people to play it with. But my entire hope for 5E comes down to the PLAYERS of 5E. - I hope 5E's announcement was early enough that these two years give everyone plenty of time to save $1 buck a week, thereby giving them about $100 bucks in cash when the game gets released. That way they can buy it easily and [I][B]we never have to hear the complaints again that "WotC is making me buy all my books over again!"[/B][/I] - I hope 5E is flexible enough that you CAN use it to play all manner of styles of D&D so we never have to hear the complaints of [I][B]"WotC refuses to support how I play the game!"[/B][/I] - I hope 5E's marketing tells us that they think it's a really fun game, and is adaptable in many ways to any of your favorite D&D games of the past so that we never have to hear the complaints of [I][B]"WotC insulted my style of play and I refuse to support them ever again!"[/B][/I] - I hope that 5E is released in a happy middle ground between the OGL and the GSL, where it's economically feasible for third party producers to create content for 5E, but still restrained enough that they can't produces games off of it that don't require 5E. That way we'll never have to hear the complaints of [I][B]"I'll never play any of version of D&D that isn't open sourced!"[/B][/I] - I hope that 5E is produced both in hardcover form *and* made available on e-readers and tablets, so that we never have to hear the complaints of [I][B]"I refuse to play any game that isn't in book/electronic form!"[/B][/I] - I hope 5E is flexible enough with older editions and that WotC gets their e-book and PDF system in order so that they can and do continue to release older D&D material for purchase, so that we never have to hear the complaints of [I][B]"WotC is refusing to take my money by not making older material available for purchase!".[/B][/I] And I could go on. Needless to say... I'd love for 5E to solve most of the problems that cause folks here on EN World to go apoplectic. Because it'd be a lot nicer time to hang out here if there were fewer constant complaints. ;) [/QUOTE]
