[QUOTE="jdsivyer, post: 4519134, member: 78336"] My main problem is that a mere 3 years after 3.5 (which supposedly "fixed" 3.0) was produced, along came 4e. Even if 4e had a been a re-tooling of 3.5 (not an almost complete overhaul) then I would be less than happy still the same because it was only 3 years after the previous one. So what I'm saying is that I would like WOTC to explain why they needed a new edition 3 years after the "fixing" of the previous one - I am yet to hear a logical or reasonable explanation. As far as customer only wanting continual support (and free of charge), I'm not too sure, to be honest. If the product is good, and justified, people will purchase it. I'm just not sure if 4e was justified at this time (2008) when 3.5 came out only a few years back. And why dooes a business like WOTC only have two choices when re-launching a game? Why do they have to re-launch a new game in its own right? If they realised there were errors or glitches in 3.5 then they simply should have been fixed. I'm still not 100% sure of what the reason behind re-tooling 3.5 to what 4e has become is. Maybe it's just me, but the decision to bring out 4e still leaves me a little baffled. Whether the game is good, bad, great, or downright shocking, it doesn't matter. I'm just simply curious as to why they released it so quickly after "fixing" the previous edition, that's all.
