[QUOTE="HeapThaumaturgist, post: 2503933, member: 12332"] Nope. I'll happily upgrade to 4.0 when it comes out. I'm not much in the market for splats and expansions and the only D&D products on my shelf right now are the 3 core books. A 50 dollar total investment when I bought them (some funky finanglin' from B&N online). 50 bucks for years worth of enjoyment? I'll not even blink to go for the next edition, especially if it's an improvement over this edition. This with my major gaming interest lying in Grim Tales, d20 Modern, d20 CoC, and other such d20-based non-D&D games. *shrug* I think a 4e or d20Modern 2nd Ed would be GOOD for those games, in a few years. It's my sincere hope that Ben could turn a new edition to his advantage by eventually releasing a Grim Tales 2nd Ed. book to go along with any changes in 4e or d20M 2nd Ed. I'd gladly line up to buy a new GT core book, and dance a happy little gig after handing him my money. The RPG market seriously suffers from slitting its own damn throat. You put out an edition of a book and people buy a single copy and expect to have it for fifty bazillion years. But you can't run a business by selling your market a single book every decade. I think D&D needs new editions to stay fresh, new, and fun. There are new paradigms out there in terms of rules, supplements, and design methods that I think WotC and D&D could definately make use of to improve the base game ... they should be incorporated into the game, a new edition released, the new edition OGL/SRDed and let the evolution CONTINUE. When 3.5 becomes staid and boring and I find myself increasingly pressed to strap more and more 3rd-party house rules onto it to get it to do the things I want ... my hope is that Wizards will be intelligent enough to release another edition which will solve those problems. --fje [/QUOTE]
