Did anyone say Hoochling?

If only.

Meh, every edition has brought name changes. This is yet another pointless nerdraged theme to rant to. I wonder what tomorrow will bring.

ding!ding!ding!

Wow! let me guess, the next time there is a typo in the magazine you gonna suggest some weird conspiracy about trying to confuse the readers and collapse the written tradition of communication? Has it ocurred to you that maybe since the FRPG is being released this month the magazine should...

When in Rome...

Has anyone come up with rules for crafting magic items? Maybe something like a skill challenge?

Is this your opinion or do you actually have evidence that it's directly related?

If they would only listen to you, the 3E/4E world would be a better place.

Wow harsh!

Might as well add me too, because I don't get it either. WOTC can never win apparently.

It's a continuation from his blog a few months ago:

I totally agree with you. I agree that 4E playstyle is different than 3E. While 3E may have had a broader range of options, 4E focused on the core of D&D. I agree with you on this too. Sadly none of those other games have the brand D&D on them.

If we are to compare editions, there is lots of stuff 4E has that 3.5 doesn't and vice versa. My point is that 4e was designed as a complete introductory game, from that point of view it is a complete game. There is nothing missing that would make it impossible to run a Adventure as a group and...

Before 4e came out, we decided to give it a try if we did not like it we were gonna say goodbye to D&D until 5th edition came out. We all voted for Runequest as an alternative, but once we read 4e we decided to we loved the changes and will stick with it.

What is this power creep you talking about? care to give any examples?

All those extra options run in the periphery of what the actual core of D&D is: Adventure as a group and fight monsters with steel & magic. As for anti-simulationist, well I am glad they did away with that stuff. It's pretty obvious their design choices are to limit 4E to what core D&D should...

well it was the main reason to have those rules in the first place, for any DMs that wanted to run crossover adventures, Murlynd anyone? The 'make stuff up' has been there since the first inception of D&D. ANd I don;t think that not having gun rules in the DMG will prevent new and old DM...

For the record, my failing eyesight is glad for the bigger font.
