    Is this what you went through with 3rd Edition?

    I can only speak for myself, of course. But at the time they announced 3E, it was clear for me and my group that 2e had become a horribly broken game. While it was soon clear that 3E was going to have problems of its own, I highly anticipated that edition because the better streamlining and...

    Gary Gygax has passed. RIP beloved father of RPG's. (merged)

    Classes ... Much Less Flexible than Advertised

    . I know, the rules we know about are sketchy at best and don't provide a proper view of the whole ruleset. We have no idea what the multiclass ruling will be. Until then, you're right to point out that multiclassing will hopefully provide for the (much needed imho) flexibility in character...

    Classes ... Much Less Flexible than Advertised

    The thing I'm most concerned with is the small number of classes combined with a system that at the moment does't shine in flexibility. There are the four 'roles' and every class seems build around its 'role' in the party (leader, striker,etc..). There seems to be little room for a character to...
