Yeah, a dozen other posters answered this before I could, but basically (a) can happen all the time. heroes arent going to be everywhere and sometimes the pleabs will die of disease with no recourse. . . unless the heroes show up and are able to effect a cure. otherwise its moot. Yes, kids...

Yeah, I have no problem at all with this, really. It makes ritual magic less certain, which I think is a good thing since its fairly open for anyone to take. Besides, a little risk makes people think twice before spamming the ritual just to beat the math. . . and as others have indicated, it...

Dude, you totally made me laugh at work. Not good. Its against company policy. Along with surfing the-

I'm 5'9" and 210lbs, and I'm no fattie, so I don't think that's too far off the mark. Maybe beefy, but not obese, especially if we're taking into account strength. . . .plus yeah, those horns have to add something.

Hey, if you're gaming and having fun, regardless of the edition, then more power to you. Too few of us gamers out there to be jumping all over each other for a difference in gaming style. . . That said I plan on picking KotSF up tonight and give it a once over. I'm not a grognard by any...

Um . . . yeah. Not seeing anything new about this, really, from any other edition I played. Despite what anyone may say, any game your character lives through is a win. So yeah, living to the end of the campaign is part of that whole winning thing. Accomplishing some cool epic goal makes...

Short answer to the OP: This is the internet. People like to complain. Here you'll find posters who are fanatically supportive of 4e as well as those who seem to live to poke holes in every piece of crunch that comes out to prove 4e sucks. And most of us lie in between. I'm sure for every...

Actually, I'm thinking one pointy and one not. Books? What boo . . . oh yeah.

Generally positive. I actually like the idea of stronger class roles anyhow, but the ability to splash in other class abilities--without them being pathetically weak--is nice. Of course, I am one of those who thought 3e multiclassing was an abomination, so anything is an improvement to me :)

Meh, like some others mentioned, my love of 3.5 had gone cold at least a year and a half ago for so many of the reasons already mentioned: ridiculous prep time, combat slow down, always referenceing rules even after 8 years, too much math and not enough action, far too easy to powergame, no...

Can I get an Amen brotha!

I'm of the camp that the PCs acted foolishly, arrogoantly, and more than a little evil. To say that a grumpy or rude personality is an open invitation to kill someone is just trying to justify an evil action, and to say that powerful characters are less subject to alignment because of this is...

On occassion, I see nothing wrong with a little duex ex machina for the PCs. A little. Though it can easily get overdone, I agree. Honestly, it makes sense now and then that the PCs are going to come up against things that are out of their league and need to beat a hasty retreat, or hope for...

Enlarge the pie, hombres. Enlarge the pie. Lucky for you, this site is grandma-friendly.

I have no problem with the OP expressing his opinions, despite the fact that I am liking what I see of 4e very much (with a few exceptions). But I am disappointed with the touchyness displayed by some grownups over a game. A game! Some people like to argue, I guess. Viva la forum posting!

Bah, my imagination transcends game systems. Unfortunately it transcends them so much that I have to bend to a ruleset to be fair to everyone else :-p I'm not worried about our hobby. Like others have said, its been through worse. Frankly, I don't see 4e as a bad thing for the industry at...

Meh, bad mouthing a dead man. What poor form. Really, I agree with some of the other posters. Just ignore it, the guy's obviously an idiot.

I would like to put my vote mostly in the "couldn't give a cricket's fart" hat, frankly. That being said, my group has switched to 1-1-1 without a problem, but i wouldn't really care if someone was dead set on 1-2-1-2. I save my nerd rages for the battles that really count . . . like Golden...

I already have it, so no. Its not a bad game, I just don't have enough player interest to get them to learn a fairly complicated and very different system. And I feel a little uneasy about the nature of their promotion. Granted, it is clever, but very. . . aggressive.

Play 3.5? Maybe, though I'm pretty burned out on it as both a player and DM. My plan as of this point is to switch to 4e and never look back. As far as getting rid of me 3.5 books, are you on crack? I still have my 1e books. Of course, I'm a bit of a packrat. . .
