I'm sorry Kinneus, but why would you reply to this thread if you had nothing productive to add? I'm merely looking for some new insight...

A while ago I quit posting here since I believe so called "edition wars" should be an important part of the growth of RPG design philosophy. I gave realistic reasons why I felt WotC had failed, and this site didn't take kindly to it. I think a big reason why the opinions on sites such as this...

Okay, it would seem to me that about 50% of the gaming community is unhappy with 4th Edition. This is bad. If 50% of a gaming group doesn't show up to play, the campaign is probably over. 4th Edition has sold well (my friends and I all bought the gift set), however profit margins for the...

By this time tomorrow, the ban on "edition wars" should have been lifted. I'm pretty neutral on this, because I've played 'em all, and believe each edition has a unique set of pros and cons. I certainly welcome the ability to discuss such matters, and will enjoy the heated debates. Personally, I...

Collectible Role Playing Game 5th edition will be a card-based miniature game. Current power sources will work like Mana in MtG. Different powers will cost varying amounts of those power sources. Race/ Class combinations will be sold as pre-set decks of cards packaged with a d20 and a...

In in effort to atone for my previous post (Why I don't like 4th edition), I've decided to start a thread detailing the things I like about the current dnd. I'll admit it was my first post, so maybe I was being too idealistic. I accidentally started a supposed "Edition War", and thus the thread...

I've always felt like the previous editions had a "use miniatures if you want to" feel. This was less so in 3rd and less again in 4th. I do think a quality DM makes for a bigger difference w/out miniatures. However, with choices including character creation, basic actions, power selection, and...

WOW! Replies have been quick! Personally, the 1st thing I did, was halve a monster's hp and maximize their damage. It saves on rolling and picks up the pace. But, as I stated, this was only one of my issues. I'd also like to say that I'm a bit of a power gamer (I DM and play). I thought I'd...

I grew up playing 1st/2nd edition, among other games. I liked but didn't love 3rd edition, as I felt for everything they fixed something else was broken. Last year I played a LOT of SWSE and had the best time of my life!!! This is why I was really excited about 4th edition. Then I played it...
