With all due respect, 4E fans should be very cautious in taking *my* opinion of what constituted a "bug" in 4E. I'm very qualified to discuss why 4E doesn't work for me at all. I'm not particularly qualified to talk about what works best and least with 4E for the 4E fanbase. The same applies in reverse for 3E and fans/detractors there.Alright, to me this sounds like elevating a bug to a feature, but to each their own.
So rather than your word against mine, just look at the overall.
Well, first, if they provide the modules to create a 4E feel as they have promised, then this need should go away. While, I don't relate to that need, I 100% support it.My prediction is that, when we're talking about 5e Charop in under a year's time, abusing and guarding against this gap will be the core of optimization.
Second, it will depend on what group is doing the talking. I fully expect that within your circles of like-minded gamers, this will be true (to the extent a module doesn't make it moot).
I'm more interested in whether there is a thriving 5E Charop debate 5 years from now.
