I had a weird experience with 4e. I enjoyed it quite a bit. My group were playtesters. I thought it was a well put together game, and for me, the essence of 4e was trying to bring some measured balance to the PC classes. Encounters were also fun and easy to put together.
Slightly off-topic:
About half my table really disliked it and our next campaign was in Pathfinder. I never could pin down why some of my players disliked it so much, and the reason it was a weird experience for me was - If I brought a game with enthusiasm to the table it was always embraced by the players. Even some of my goofy homebrew rpgs. However, I think 4e just did not match the experience my players were expecting from a game named D&D.
