Message: <blockquote data-quote="RFisher" data-source="post: 3714044" data-attributes="member: 3608">My own opinion is that new editions should come after ever increasing periods of time. Because it logically takes longer & longer to find enough improvements to justify a new edition.(Of course, I also tend to think that most changes end up being more of a trade-off than a clear improvement.)Yes, they can attempt to make it easy, but it will still end up being hard or broken for more people. Because what is easy & what works in conversion for one person/group, is hard or is broken for other person/group. This is the fundamental problem. Even if they try to make a suite of conversion guides to try to please everyone, I suspect it would only be marginally less a failure than the 3e conversion guide was.But, FWIW, in one of the GamerZer0 interviews, one of them (was it Rob?) said that they've heard the feedback & that they are realizing that because the approach of the 3e conversion guide was a failure, that doesn't mean they shouldn't do one at all for 4e.But it sounds like it is going to essentially say, "You've got to figure it out yourself." (^_^)I still play Magic with only my two starter decks & a handful of boosters. I just stopped playing with the guys who were beating me through their wallet.I still play D&D although I've bought very, very few supplements.I intend to play 4e whether I subscribe to Insider or not.</blockquote>
