<p>In the end, the only judgement I really trust is my own. I won't know whether this new game is something I want to add to my repertoire until after I've read it, thought about it, and probably played it a bit.</p>
<p>I never really leave behind any version of D&D, though. I still have all the materials (literally all) and I still play, at least occasionally, all the old editions.</p>
<p>Why not?</p>Of course I have.

Paizo has a special offer on the upcoming 4th Edition core rulebooks!
<br />

<br />
Most gamers, including ourselves, are interested in taking a look at the upcoming Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition rulebooks due in June. In order to make the sting to your pocketbook a little less onerous, we've decided to give our customers a bit of a break.</p>
<p>Preorder the 4th Edition Player's Handbook, the 4th Edition Dungeon Master's Guide, or the 4th Edition Monster Manual from paizo.com, and you'll get them for 20% off the suggested retail price—a savings of $7 per book!</p>
<p>And for those interested in the whole shebang, we have an extra-special deal on the Dungeons & Dragons—4th Edition Core Rulebook Collection, which contains all three core books in a unique slipcase. In addition to the 20% off, folks who preorder the set from us will receive an unique code that can be redeemed for 25% off a single order on paizo.com, excluding preorders, backorders and subscriptions. (This coupon will be emailed after the order containing the 4th Edition Core Rulebook Collection has shipped.) So use the 25% off coupon to offset the cost of these core rulebooks with a future order, and get a good look at the newest edition of Dungeons & Dragons for yourself!</blockquote><p>Teiran wrote:Phaerie wrote: Yup!
