[QUOTE="Wolfspider, post: 3858183, member: 300"] Oh, I'm very aware that it's not all about me. It's not all about you, either. It's not all about any one of the fine members here at ENWorld. It's about the community. The WotC crew area bunch of darn commies. ;) And more new gamers would be a wonderful thing. I certainly won't begrudge 4e for doing that. I don't want the hobby to wither and die. I want it to thrive. I'm wondering if bringing new gamers into the fold is really the focus, though. I have heard mention of a "basic game," but not very many details, and it hasn't really been promoted much yet. It seems like at first that they are focusing on established gamers with the realize of the three corebooks all at once. I really do hope that they make a whizbang kind of basic game this time. I was rather underwhelmed by the D&D 3.0/3.5 one. I thought that the D&D for Dummies books were a lot more useful in that regard. [/QUOTE]
