Doesn't look too bad. All game footage is of combat.

Cheers.

Sweet Jesus! Thanks, Steve!

I love Tim Cain. ToEE is looking great. But you can't see the turn-based coolness in the trailer. Good of them to confirm use of D&D 3.5E, though.

yea you can... the TB is evident with the big golem fight I think. It looks tight anyways. I can't wait for this.

Can you please explain what's different or new in 3.5?

They've changed a few things that just didn't make sense in base 3E. Essentially a bunch of revisions that should have been free, but instead they're calling it a BIG REVISION and making you buy three new rulebooks for it.

That honestly doesn't shock me at all considering Wizards of the Coast. This is one of the reasons I got out of D&D in the first place back in the early 1990s when they released 2E. After buying about $100 worth of books, I didn't feel like buying $200 worth of new ones.

Indeed, and this is even more superficial than the 1E -> 2E conversion. The core rules are the same, just a few dozen small things will be changed. I've already got my 3E books, and I'm sticking to them.
