This thread has made me curious: http://www.enworld.org/forum/new-horizons/316128-5e-vance-not-vance-question.html
I personally see Vancian magic as one of D&D's defining features, something that sets it apart from other FRPGs. Something that adds to its unique character.
Not everyone feels likewise, I know. Lovers of Vancian magic may even be in the minority of D&D players at this point.
So for those who really despise Vancian magic as much as some clearly do, I have to ask: What is it about D&D that attracted you to the game?
(Please: This isn't about discussing the merits or deficiencies of Vancian magic, this is about the OTHER aspects of D&D that led people to overcome their dislike of it to play and enjoy the game.)
