[QUOTE="Brother MacLaren, post: 3934885, member: 15999"] This might be true for technology, but I just don't agree that it applies to games. I've made the point before about sports, card games, and classic board games -- from the really old (Chess, checkers, backgammon) to the relatively new (Scrabble, Monopoly, etc.). Games don't have to keep changing the rules to be viable. Major league sports may undergo some minor tinkering with rules, but pickup games change very little. D&D for me is going to become much more like one of these hobbies. Something where I can be [I]content [/I] to play a game more or less the way I've always played it. There will always be new worlds to explore, new adventures to have, and new characters to create. The 4E forum will still be of interest for several reasons, but I do know that I'm not switching to 4E, 5E, 6E, or any future edition. I have a system that's good enough, and the ability to be content is a truly wondrous thing. [/QUOTE]
