[QUOTE="Argyle King, post: 5226956, member: 58416"] I don't feel 4E has what I would call 'rule overload.' The rules are pretty simple, and there really haven't been (m)any expansions of the rules of the game. However, I do agree that there are too many rules and options which blur the line between options. This is one of the things I hated about later 3rd Edition which seems to be creeping into 4E very early in the life of 4E; there are too many feats, options, and etc which allow someone to mimic class features and race features without being the class or race that has those features. There are also a multitude of feats and options which allow pretty much any ability attribute to be used for just about anything. In small doses this can be ok, but it's done far too much and it starts to take meaning away from those classes, races, and attributes. I agree that there is quite a bit of overlap. I thought the point of there being different options is for those options to be... well... different. [/QUOTE]
