H*ck I’d buy the 3.0 hardbacks. I never owned them and new pod ones would be great.

They're available as we speak in case you weren't aware.

I did this with a few boxed sets, namely Planescape and Dark Sun. Also Dragon Kings!

I just picked up the Dark Sun boxed set hardcover from drivethrurpg and freaking LOVE it. I always preferred hardcover setting books over box sets and am absolutely thrilled that after all these years I finally have one for 2e Dark Sun in my hands. It even put the introductory flipbook adventure in normal page format, woohoo!

I wonder, even if they never put out a new book if the DM guild and PoD could WotC still make good money off people buying products?

Having all the older editions effectively permanently in print due to those two sites is IMO one of the single greatest things that could have ever happened to this hobby.

Ah, you did specify that. My mistake. In a similar vein I wish they had the original 2e corebooks available as well.

That would be cool too. I think Holmes is missing too. Or did it get added?

Not yet.

Here is a useful link to KirayaTiDrekan's seven year old(!) thread tracking what still hadn't been released on DMsGuild in PDF and POD.

As good as the 3.0 hardbacks were, the entry for the 3.5e Tarrasque is the most terrifying non-divine monster in all of Dungeons and Dragons. That beast is the PERFECT killing machine.

Unless you send a few allips after it.

For some companies, absolutely! For Wizards? Probably not.

at least not at the level they are now... but yeah I bet a dozen smaller presses would be able to live off the income of old D*D but I'm sure Hasbro wants it to be more moeny...

As nice it is to have 2e core books that aren't beaten up, yeah, I was disappointed that the deluxe versions that were released some years ago were the 90s versions, not the 80s ones.

In a similar vein I wish they had the original 2e corebooks available as well.
