[QUOTE="Tallifer, post: 5815557, member: 84661"] I am starting to convert to the Fifth Edition already in my mind after some initial reluctance and with much continuing distaste for certain revelations. The Fifth Edition will work terrifically for playing groups such as mine in Korea. We have about a dozen active members, and we represent a wide variety of tastes and backgrounds. We are all very happy to meet and play with roleplayers while we are here in exile from the hot spots of gaming in the big Western cities, so we are all willing to compromise and play in each others' editions. Nonetheless it is a bit of a hassle to keep learning new rules or to deliberate before each campaign as to its system. The Fifth Edition should allow each of us to meet our desires while all playing together at the same table. This is also extremely important because players keep coming and going because of the transitory nature of most foreigners in Korea (and the fact that almost no Koreans play tabletop and simultaneously have enough English). Lest this example seem too esoteric, I know that my good friend back in the country in Canada has a similar problem. There are very few roleplayers in that part of Canada, which is very rural and small town: an edition which bridges the most egregious chasms between gamers will make for more ease of starting and maintaining D&D groups.
