[QUOTE="Kunimatyu, post: 6167877, member: 22057"] Just ran a little bit of Isle of Dread with the new playtest packet. This was our group's first foray into Next since the very first packet. We were generally impressed. Everyone seemed to have about the right amount of options without needless bloat. Not having skills was *fantastic* and encouraged much more freeform roleplaying. Combats were also about the right tempo. A++++++, would run again, etc. After reading the packet in detail, here were several things I liked a lot: Fighters get advantage to saves at the higher levels! The class has needed some boosting, and that's a good way to do it. Healing magic didn't seem completely vital. The party had a cleric, but he has yet to actually heal anybody, thanks to Hit Dice. Magic items (generally) can't be sold for money! This fixes a multitude of issues. I also really enjoyed the tables that help to make each item unique. [/QUOTE]
