[QUOTE="BryonD, post: 3764664, member: 957"] I always take business interest talk with a heaping of salt. And this is no different. Really, I'd consider it absurd to expect a business to do anything else than promote their product to the fullest extent. And I haven't the slightest problem with it. That said, I really get the vibe so far that the guys in the know are truly finding that they have improved their personal gaming experiences through development of the new system so far. And that the excitement of the R&D guys comes at least, if not much more, from that than from a sales drive. These guys know where their paychecks come from. And you won't focusing on places where they may have concerns for that reason. But that doesn't mean that they feel the need to go out and fake enthusiasm. Even if they were flat out told to lie and pretend they were having a blast (which moves from marketing into a stupid shoot your self in the foot move that I don't remotely believe to be the case), I don't think so many of them could so effectively create a false impression at real pleasure. Bottom line is that I tend to be cynical as hell, yet the one single thing I really think I know about 4E right now is that these guys are pleased with what they have done and are really truly having fun using it at the table.
