[QUOTE="solkanar33, post: 4074792, member: 60755"] I don't think I will switch. First of all, in my core 3.5 campaign there is a bard, a druid and a sorcerer. Base classes in 3e but now severly degraded to splat book level. I'm honestly very disappointed that WOTC obliterated almost half (5 out of 11) their base classes from their core 4E game. Sure they'll be in splatbooks somewhere down the road but that's of no use to me or my group now. When I used to decide to buy a splatbook it was because I liked it and never because I needed it for my group. That's a big difference I absolutely dislike. I don't care about new 'cool' base classes or races I didn't ask for. If I can't convert half my group, I won't switch! Second I'm not convinced that 4e will be a better system than 3.5. I know, not a lot is known at this point, but I remember that when they released 3.0, I was convinced from the very start that it was going to be an much better system than 2e. Flawed in lots of ways, but a vast improvement nonetheless. Now 3.5 has its issues but its not a bad or obsolete system. I really wanted 4E to work, really. But company greed and ambiguous design severely threaten its viability for me to have fun with it. [/QUOTE]
