[QUOTE="Darrin Kelley, post: 5773914, member: 11018"] I have looked through my 4th Edition D&D books, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with them. It is a good game, for what it is. However, what isn't needed is a new edition. That's an absolutely unnecessary step. Which just shows more company jackassery. I'm going to outline what is needed. And I'm going to be concise. A basic set. One that is a complete game in and of itself. Which can be enhanced at the buyer's option with additional books and accessories. But this basic game should be the core of the property. Easy to get into, and easy to understand. Removal of the focus on miniatures. Make them the entirely optional accessory they are. There is no need for pressure tactics to try and make a buyer believe they need them when they don't. Return 4th Edition to the OGL. Release a true SRD for it. And give up on the absolute jackassery of trying to repeal the OGL. Because it was those actions that caused the core fanbase to believe the company gave them a big middle finger. Give us full products. None of this garbage about "exclusive online content". When I buy a game book, I want all of the information that was supposed to be in it. No trickery, no BS. [/QUOTE]
