It maybe because I'am old but I miss Dragon and Dungeon magazines. I had subscriptions to both since the early 90's eventhough I was not actively gaming back then. I miss the excitement I felt when I received my mags in the mail and could'nt wait to put my feet up and start reading. Sorry if I was off topic but this thread made this old guy nostalgic

I thought it was basically a miniatures game now, isn't it?

I'm sure they're already planning 5th Edition, or at least another X.5 rip-off.

I miss the ability to pick up a few copies in the game store and just thumb through them to see what was being done. Maybe I'm old-fashioned, but I just prefer a hardcopy I can hold in my hands to everything being digital.

chances of this happening?

1) around the time 5th edition thoughts enter Hasbro minds, 4e DnD/FR is considered a huge flop
2) Hasbro contemplates action
3) Hasbro keeps FR novel rights (only FR moneymaker?) but sells rights to license FR setting to a 3rd party (or even back to Ed)
4) 3rd party rewinds to 1375DR
5) everyone is happy again
