[QUOTE="Khaalis, post: 5835219, member: 2167"] I still maintain that people are totally misconstruing the statement that 5E/D&DN will recapture the "Feel" of older D&D with meaning that the rules mechanics will revert to "BEING" an old system. Which simply isn't going to be the case. The new system is going to be a new animal altogether. There may be some mechanics that survive from different editions to blend into a new system, but the game will never simply revert to an older version. I honestly don't see why certain people insist on dragging out arguments about 5E/D&DN/WotC being crap or a deal breaker if the new system isn't going to be exactly as the older version that person wants to play. You already have the old version you want. You already know that is all that will suffice. Why even bother discussing options of the new system when you know it isn't for you? Simply let the whole discussion pass you buy since you don't really want to add anything constructive. Going on every thread and saying that you won't buy the new version unless it fits specifically this "X" parameter is, IMHO, just trolling. I just don't get it. [i]{Edit: Sorry for my own troll, but threads like this are just making me so incredibly frustrated. We can't just simply discuss 5E without it degrading...}[/i] [/QUOTE]
