[QUOTE="Mistwell, post: 6944817, member: 2525"] I totally disagree. Zard is not "unsatisfied with the current edition," he's just played this edition more than anyone I've ever heard of. When you play an edition as much as Zard has played this one, you find all the flaws (and the things that work well). He's mentioned lots that works well, it's just that such comments cause no controversy so they don't get any focus. But the flaws he points out, those get focus because they cause controversy. I've found Zard, over two years now, to be pretty darn objective in his analysis of the game. He likes plenty about 5e - it's why he's playing the heck out of it. But if anyone is in a position to find and articulate some flaws about this edition, it's him. You know, given he's putting in the hours to play this game almost like it's his paying job to do it :) My group's playstyle tends to be different than Zard's group, but his group's playstyle isn't particularly odd or not representative of a pretty meaningful number of other groups out there. Given that, his observations are usually worth listening to. [/QUOTE]
