4e / GSL WotC: Mike Mearls and Rob Heinsoo change roles.

Dang. IMO everything Mike Mearls touches turns to rust ... kind of like his revision of the rust monster which was devoid of all logic. I guess we will be seeing an even greater move away from simulation gaming to ... i dunno ... gaming gaming?

I've pretty much established now that I'm not going to like 4e no matter what, so I guess this just puts another nail in that coffin.

Might I suggest then that, in the future, you avoid threads that are clearly about 4e?

We understand that many folks have emotional garbage they feel they need to dump - but we ask, expect, and require that you not dump it on your fellow EN Worlders.

Make a 4e version of the "old" rust monster.

Move along... move along

I wonder if Mike's System Shock variant damage rules will be added to a future product with him as the new lead mechanical designer?
