[QUOTE="Belphanior, post: 4299074, member: 12401"] Yeah thanks for that buddy. Let me tell you about my first 3e character. ( ;) ) An elven monk who "wasted" almost all her attribute enhancements from leveling into Charisma, as she slowly but surely evolved from a stonecold disciplined dungeondelving killer into an open-hearted person. She eventually fell in love, married the party's rogue, bore him a child, and shortly after retired from adventuring to take care of her family life, being truly happy for the first time in more than a hundred years. None of this was planned in advance. This was character development from level 1 all the way to 17 in its purest form. Not everybody defines "roleplaying" in the same way, but in my opinion this was some of it. And some damn good bit too. I mastered 3.x, have almost every supplement, and number-crunched like a fiend when I had to. I used spells in ways nobody ever intended to in order to pull of some miraculous escape and can by memory alone construct NPCs of any level - on the fly behind the screen, if I have to. And I love 4e. Please don't ever again assume I'm a moron who thinks WoW's questchains are roleplaying. Also please don't assume I'm incapable of grasping the complexities of 3e and require something simpler. Rather, just get off your high horse and accept that some people have different tastes. For us, 4e is great. You don't have to like it, but you certainly don't have the right to insult us. [/QUOTE]
