[QUOTE="Mercule, post: 4425056, member: 5100"] Nor am I. I'm still on the fence with 4e. Actually, I have yet to play more than an evening of it. There is enough that interests me, though, that I do want to give it a chance to win me over. About the only thing I can say for sure is that 3.5 lost me before 4e was even announced. That may be because I just like rotating systems -- and I do like rotating systems. I think it's more likely, though, that I got "unpleasant" results too many times when I tried to house rule, tweak, and simplify 3e. I'll absolutely grant that 3.5 suits some play styles well enough. My main beef, right now, is with the hostility and the suggestions (some more explicit than others) that anyone unsatisfied with 3.5 is somehow deficient. I agree, though, that there do seem to be some people who had an epiphany or ten about 3e only when 4e was released/announced. If I wasn't already unhappy with 3e, I imagine that would probably turn me off more than a bit, too. [/QUOTE]
