Is this a good thing? I thought Descent was a really expensive game because of all the expansions... and now they're all invalid and we start the process again?

There is going to be an upgrade pack that allows you to bring all the monsters and characters over from 1st ed by providing a pile of new cards. I would assume the adventures will translate straight across if you've got the upgrade pack as you'll have the new stats.
Things like campaign play seems to have been rolled into the core game and character builds seem like WFRP3 lite with class and skill cards.

I've got all of the expansions and love Descent. I will probably be buying the 2nd edition and the conversion kit and seeing how we go from there. More Descent can only be a good thing!

I'd be interested in seeing if the parts are the same, or different, more detailed. If it the latter, there is a good chance I'll finally get this.
Seems more and more unlikely we'll ever see Warhammer Quest back, and I'll need a dungeon crawling fix at some point.

Looks like the price has been cut down a bit and the game length has been cut to 1-2 hours, instead of 4... That's a lot of streamlining.

The tiles and pieces are all redesigned, as are the rules to streamline it quite a lot.
Here's the Fantasy Flight website for it:
