I am interested in your opinion about Cormyr. What was wrong with it? (It's not a product I have.)Gwathlas said:if Cormyr was an indication monsters will be uniform and bland.

Sure, but interesting can be undermined by illogical. If a 4 ton gargantuan beast is making REF saves simply because it is a L20 creature, then gamist parts will overshadow the interesting engaging parts.Mustrum_Ridcully said:Well, I understand your feeling, but I wouldn't mind that much. I think it is a lot more important - in fact, the most important thing - that the critters have unique abilities that distinguish them from each other.
A monster doesn't get interesting just because he has a 6 points higher Fortitude Defense but a 3 points lower Reflex and Will defense than the other monster of its level.
It's getting interesting because the one is large with wings, can snatch you and fling you against a wall or just drop you from great heights, while the other monster of its level is small, fires lightning bolts at you and likes to hang around in large groups.
Not when you are talking about D&D it doesn't. Not by a very very long way.Matthew L. Martin said:The second half of this sentence contradicts the first.

You mean, like the Dragon problem currently? (All Saves good, Dexterity is a constant value over all size categories.)BryonD said:Sure, but interesting can be undermined by illogical.

I don't understand how this relates to my post you quoted, nor really what you are getting at at all...please elaborate.Gwathlas said:All the monsters and pc's become just roles and your excited? The monster type no longer matters and it's no longer fantasy! What difference will there be between starwars and 4e? Take away the names and they are all the same just brutes or leaders or whatever. You could just buy starwars and skip 4e and still have the same game. 4e is just a starwars clone and not worth spending a cent on.
