[QUOTE="Glyfair, post: 3814564, member: 53"] I agree. However, I've heard this comment (which is right out of a D&D fantasyland, IMO) from a few. They want or expect the split to be enough where 4E is noticeably crippled. Those are the comments I really wonder about. Which has little to do with the original impetus for this topic. I can see how it ties into to some concerns, but I never really considered how this will impact WotC. I think that anyone who thinks it will move the current version of D&D from being the dominating RPG is considering a fantasy. It could theoretically happen, but WotC wouldn't let it happen. It would take serious mismanagement for that to happen. I can pull out my 3.X books and point to a lot of the "classic monsters" outside of the core Monster Manual. NG even published a book filled with many of them, [I]Tome of Horrors[/I]. Sure, it has a lot of the marginal creatures. However, it also has such classic monsters as the brownie and leprechaun. Nope, the current D&D crowd are used to that. [/QUOTE]
