UUuuugghhh, not another new version of D&D. This crap is <i>exactly</i> the reason I'm so down on playing. I spent a ton of money on AD&D 2nd Ed. stuff back in the mid 90's when I was playing a lot... then I took a few years off from playing, and when I looked at it again, v3.5 was out. Fine, I figured that was fair, a few years had gone by and 2nd ed was pretty dated.<p>But right after I spent <i>another</i> ton of money on v3 and v3.5 materials, they announce 4th edition! WTF?!? I resisted even touching that edition until last year when I caved in and bought a player handbook and rolled out a character for an impromptu game with a few friends one weekend. And now they want to roll out yet another new version?<p>Please... I know there's pressure to rev stuff in order to sell more copies of the core rulebooks, but WotC are - IMO - shooting themselves in the foot with the constant version changes. I'm sorry, but I'm not throwing out and replacing a big investment in D&D materials every 4 years or so.<p>Seriously Wizards, if you want more of my money, you'd be better served pushing out more material for an existing D&D version (preferably 3.5). Give us an updated Ravenloft campaign setting and related stuff, give us a modern Planescape, create entirely new realms (have you done anything completely new since Eberron?), etc.<p>OK, rant over. :-)
