Huh?:confused:

I think high level 3e wizards are at their strongest when focusing on save or die/suck spells. I've understood that dealing hp damage is suboptimal past a certain level.

Huh, a bard.

I play WoW and I also roleplay in it. It can be better than tabletop because of the anonymity factor and the freedom to choose from a large pool of potential good roleplayers. It can also be worse because of players who are either bad roleplayers or don't roleplay at all.

Yeah, Torment probably has the best story in a CRPG that I've played. However, the best story and atmosphere and the like in any computer game must've been in Grim Fandango. It's been a decade since its release but thinking about it still sends shivers down my spine. :D

Hey, you can roleplay in WoW too. It's fun, sometimes better than tabletop.

I don't see how that differs much from 3e. Fighters and the rest roll their attack against opponents AC and deal damage, casters attack much in the same way, attack roll + damage or just damage and saving throw (inverted attack roll). 3e "utility" powers tend to give buffs to self or allies.

I think it will keep on treading that well-tried path of violence leading to personal enlightenment.

WotC has "Core Game Product" as a type of book, others including "Accessory" and "Adventure". Then there's brand, some of which are "D&D Core" and "Forgotten Realms". PHB1 is a Core Game Product in the D&D Core brand, but PHB2 is an Accessory, yet branded a D&D Core book. So the 3 first books...

Is it wrong to like both 3e and 4e? And Pathfinder?

I can play and GM any game. I like variety. I also don't mind change for change's sake. :D

Are spellcasters in 3e and earlier editions more videogamey than non-spellcasters simply because they have flashy special effects due to their magical nature?

So if the sales for the core books would've tanked, you'd still say it's impossible to tell how popular the edition is? ;)

Looking at some powers, the ones that deal with movement and immediate actions, makes me think 4e wouldn't translate that well into a video game, at least not a real-time one. Turn-based would probably work pretty well.

Skull lords... looks pretty nice. A decent from Vohwinkel. I like the three head thing it's got going on.

Didn't WotC do a font of their own for 3e books too?

Check page 52. It says, under "Soulmeld-Magic Transparency," that SR works against any effects caused by soulmelds that affect other creatures. I guess there's no official answer, but either the meldshaper could make certain individuals immune to the flames, just as he himself is immune, or...

Aren't most people unaligned in 4e? So a LG, CG, or LE character in 3e could just as well be unaligned in 4e, and only those with a strong connection to the supernatural concepts of good, evil, law, etc. have a proper alignment.

Wow, the roper looks scary. I always thought ropers were a little goofy, but this one is nice.

I didn't read the whole thread, but there really aren't people who are going to say (with a serious face), "One reason why I don't want to play the new edition of Dungeons & Dragons make-believe world fantasy game is because the Monster Manual doesn't have frost giants." Right...? Frost...
