So what is your point?I'm not saying I like 4e more or less than 3e. All the editions are flawed. My favorite edition currently is 6e.
I am saying like you said: It's all relative. All the editions use samey mechanics. It's a matter of perspective and presentation.
Let me start by clarifying an important correction of a misrepresentation you made:
I said "Nobody is out there complaining that 3X is saddled with the unfair standard/move canard or meme "
This would be 3X fans complaining that the people who don't like 3X attack it unfairly as the OP is doing from a 4E point of view.
You came in and declared yourself "nobody" but did not remotely make the complaint I described.
So you were off track from the word "go".
Please let me know if you think you can show 3X fans complaining about how non-3X fans harp about this. I'm fairly confident you can't do it.
But from there you are just repeating my point that it is relative and completely fair to dislike differing games for differing reasons.
That is exactly what I said. And since it is fair to dislike different games for different reasons, it is silly to get bent out of shape when people don't like the game you like. And it is downright absurd to attack people simply for seeing it differently.
What is your point that is a cross-paths with anything I actually said?
