Good books all of them, but have you forgotten Sanctuary, from Thieves' World ?

Well, I suppose it shows how deeply they understand their own business.

I don't know about straight jacked, as I feel this is highly subjective, but from I have seen, it seems like a cut and paste from warhammer 1e. Not necessarily bad, far from it, but not terribly creative in itself.

I find giving xps for roleplaying actually much more interesting than giving xps for killing monsters. In fact, I believe there should be only story-driven xps for accopmlishing the goals of the mission, and roleplaying xps for contributing to the mood and general enjoyment of the table. This...

Please, seriously .... How can you seriously believe that ANYTHING in 4e is balanced as of now ???? It is SSSOOOOO balanced, that they kept changing the 1st PHB text every week or so in the past few months judging from the news on this site alone. And then, there all the upcoming books, none...

Indeed, some people are stubborn enough to believe that a little MMO inspired boardgame can be D&D, just because there is a logo and vaguely similar art on the cover. I would have taken offence with your post, but the rest of what you wrote is actually quite fair. Just don't expect it to work...

I suppose you have never played Dark Sun. The life expectancy of such a character would be less than a round. Everyone would want to kill it and turn his metal into weapons.

I really agree with that review. Let's see wasn't 4e a bet about being willing to butcher the sacred cows of D&D and gettting rid of the "tradtionalist" player base, for the (understandable) benefit of drawing in new blood into the hobby ??? Good luck on that. The first part is achieved, way...

I have an excellent campaign going on with this game right now. The combat is kept fresh by the facts : Armor is DR You have VERY LITTLE Hps, but the weapon deal the same damage PARRYING rules ! (and you had better succeed on your parry) NO HEALING SPELLS (you still want to fight that guy ?)...

By this time, we'll be ready for Pathfinder 2.0, not a problem.

Yes, that is true D&D is the most known RPG games. All the RPG circles have heard of D&D. Not all of them have a POSITIVE view of D&D however. It is often seen as a backwards hack and slash game, kind of an erstatz of Diablo without the graphics. I had to work long and hard to make D&D accepted...

I second this entirely. No matter what anyone might say, I will not ever convert to the "thing", and since I am the DM for two groups, I am taking them with me. So we have the choice between stopping buying RPGs entirely (and living off my 25 years stock), and buying Pathfinder. In my case...

I second this sentiment, and wish NONE of them are updated given the slaughter of FR that is called an update.

YEAH !!!! me tooo !!! Huzzah for Pathfinder !

Yes. And I'll add that they grow their sales ... while EVERYBODY ELSE, including the almighty WOTC is complaining about declining sales and doomandgloom. Maybe they know better than the "professionals" ?

Actually, I have one, and I completely disagree with you. But since I have rarely seen two experts on any business subject ever agree on anything so the analogy is quite worthless anyways. Ain't this America ? The land of ballsy capitalists who create their own destiny by doing the unexpected...

What he said, I agree wholeheartedly.

Any news on that anywhere ? i am very interested

How nice. Even if he does truly not want to play, can you even understand that one may regret 4e is not living to one's expectations, and that one might have wanted 4e, just not THAT 4e ? I can't help feeling when I read that kind of things that 4e is just a new kind of bigotry. Sorry if I...
