[QUOTE="Remus Lupin, post: 5895765, member: 12760"] Hussar, that's not the impression I get from these discussions. Looking through this thread there seem to be a number of 4e supporters who nonetheless see that the brand has been in difficulties for a while. But to get back to the original point of the thread: I suppose that with Monte gone this all only matters insofar as it helps give us a sense of what 5e will look like. The question going forward will be: Does it take 4e forward or attempt to go back to something akin to 3e. It could be that Monte left precisely because he was trying to go back to 3e and the company was pushing to go forward with 4e. It all remains to be seen, but it provides fodder for our speculation. As I said above: I could live with a lot of 4e mechanics. What I disliked was the reconfiguration of races/classes away from 3e. If WotC wants me back as a customer, they could do a lot worse than mapping some of the more effective aspects of 4e mechanics onto the race/class framework of 3e. [/QUOTE]
