[QUOTE="AbdulAlhazred, post: 9227586, member: 82106"] Well, I think everyone has their biases and you're probably more sensitive to mine, and vice-versa, than we are to our own. I mean that's generally how things work, right? OTOH I've played 1000's of hours of ACTUAL OS play, Trad D&D play, what I would consider probably Neo-Trad D&D play, and narrativist/story now D&D play. I can be sure my opinions were at least formed on the basis of deep familiarity with them all. So I admit, when I talk to people who skimmed the 4e books for an hour and maybe played once, etc. I don't feel like that makes them as qualified to comment, perhaps? It doesn't make them wrong, nor foolish, etc. It just means I am likely to take less note of them than of people with the most rounded experience. At least in my circle all of those people appreciate 4e a good bit, though I don't think all of them are necessarily die hard fans of the game or want to play it more at this point. [/QUOTE]
