In the crowd that I was in if you didn't like it they just shrugged and played with the old one. They didn't try to tackle on bits from the former onto the new.I think the largest changes were probably the setting for some people. People who didn't like the metafic as much liked nWoD better. I think the changes in the mechanics mattered a lot less because  WoD has always had a lot more emphasis on the actual story and things like character development then DnD and that doesn't really change much.DnD 4.0 did good on some things (like never having to use a slingshot again as a Wizard) however they screwed up some other things (my 3eD characters felt more "real" and more different). All and all though I think that it's biggest mistake was not how it differed from 3.x but rather how it failed to live up to its potential. If Race mattered more, if weapons felt more different and other things like that. *shakes his fist* Damn you WotC! I was promised Fey! Wicked Capricious Fey! Not Elves With Pointy Magical Sticks!Bah, I'm going to have to make a proper man out of 4.0. Grrr!</blockquote>
