Well, are you? Now that we know some of the changes coming, what are your first impressions? I would like to see the results in the poll.

thanks :)

Not a fan of the changes. (But I'm not rabid with anger, either :) ) I'll be playing 4E in the pre-2008 Realms, rather than partaking in the Fourgotten Realms.
 

Where's the poll? EDIT: Poll came up on refresh

Also I don't like it. Not because they pulled an RSE yet again so much as because the areas that could've done with some changes mostly weren't and areas I did like. Like enough to rip off for pretty much every homebrew I've run and use in every FR campaign I've run, were changed in ways that reduces or ends their usefulness to me. Not really major because I never had the Time of Troubles in my campaigns either and mostly run FR when I do out of older 1e and some 2e materials.

i do not like em nore the time jump not planning on useing 4e anyhow so thats no prob i still have plenty of realms stuff guess wotc didnt want my realms money anymore books or games used to love the realms too sad
 

I don't like any of the 4e realms changes, although I am looking forward to 4E core.

I could understand advancing the timeline or even a reboot. But it seems the sellplague (deliberate misspell) is erasing 3/4 of the realms they don't like, and keeping the bits they do like.
 

You left out an option for 'This latest in a series of bad changes since the Time of Troubles also fails at making the Realms better'.
 


I never liked the Realms before. I think these changes are distinct improvement for the Realms. I will need to see the final product before I can really say whether I will ever like the new one enough to play in it, though.
 

Meh. It will be "business as usual" for me. I just like the Spellplague for story purpose only, and not an excuse for changing the rules of resolving magic in a game.
