I've just found out from my uncle that 3rd Edition Dungeons and Dragons is going to be updated to the 3.5 Edition. It's good to know that for a few reasons, one of which explaining why Dungeon Magazine hasn't printed out any modules in the last few months (waiting for the updated version to make them) but it's also a pain in the butt. If anyone here actually plays the roleplaying game AD&D, you'd know what I'm talking about. I was also very angry because it's only been 2 years since they came out with 3rd Edition and now after getting a whole set of books (worth around 225 dollars), they make another set with more changes added into it.

Then we looked onto the main AD&D site (Wizards of the Coast), and found out they're changing very, very small things like a couple of bonus feats added and the same ones just with different names. Honestly I don't see the point of even selling new books with such small differences in them, it's a waste of money (for making them and for the people buying them).

It may not make much difference to some, but I justed wanted to say something about it.
