This would seem balanced to me something that 4e is concerned about and I particularly enjoy about the system, some people extremely dislike this aspect. My initial experience of disconnect as you phrase it with 4e was thinking it was all too tactical and all move here do this with your figures like a tactical RPG (this was heavily influenced by peoples description of this on these boards), but then I played more I ignored the comments about videogamey and played it like I played any other RPG, play my character and do the things that he would, with a handy list of suggestions in the forms of powers for stuff he was good at, and now the combat plays very much like any other RPG but with a wider range of combat maneouvers/powers my character can take advantage of.</blockquote>
