I've been really excited about 4e... and EnWorld has been my only source of information about it. One of the things that made 3.5 start to bog down after a while (to me at least) was the insane variety of classes, prestige classes, and races available to players.
It seems like people are clamoring for such and such race and new power sources with 4 more classes. How many classes do we actually need?
As a slightly related aside. I've been irritated by the fact that they standardized the appearance of tieflings. It seems like the design decision has been to create a lot of little boxes that players can jump into, rather than give players a toolkit to build what they want.
I'm starting to think I'd prefer just four classes: Leader, Controller, Striker, and Defender. Feat chains would determine the primary power source.
Eh... this is turning into a rant.
Fin.
