[QUOTE="smetzger, post: 4136470, member: 1230"] Some of the goals and the way the 4e designers implemented them 'do not feel like D&D to me'. With 3.5 I have come to expect the following things of D&D... 1) Vancian Magic. Wizards get a wide variety of spells to choose and you need to pick your daily spells wisely. 2) Monsters and PCs use the same rules 3) Rogue is a very flexible class 4) Skills are varied and I get to chose which ones I am good in, mediocre, or poor. 5) OGL. I like making small contributions to the game and getting credit for it. 6) No non-traditional core races. You may not like some of these things, but to me they contribute greatly to the 'feel' of D&D. So, I may like 4e. But so far it doesn't 'feel' like D&D to me. If your saying that I can't say "It doesn't feel like D&D to me". Then the converse is that you cannot say "It does feel like D&D to me". The only thing you can say is "I like the rules so far revealed to us." [/QUOTE]
