[QUOTE="Mort, post: 5724412, member: 762"] If it is, I still stick to "it depends". [/quote] I certainly see the position, it's easier to see different styles for different games.

As D&D gets high level it tends to approach a supehero game in no small measure (this is in fact what some people have a problem with and why the like to keep it low level, and why E6 (is that the right game?) is a popular option for some people).
