I wasn't intending it to be objective; I was making a paraphrased list of complaints that I have seen people make on these and the WotC forums, to explain where the "4e = Videogamey" complaints are coming from.No one, eh?Come on over to <a href="http://www.enworld.org/shosatori01wthread.php?t=215128&page=1&pp=30" target="_blank">No Necromancers, Illusionists and Enchanters?</a>. Or <a href="http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=215517" target="_blank">here</a> for that matter:<a href="http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=215501&page=1" target="_blank">Or...</a>Or should I pull up the original thread when the Wizard article came out and start quoting people? Allow me to take a quote from <a href="http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?t=215436&page=2" target="_blank">here</a>I've seen others make similar statements.I'm aware of this. But it is still an objection raised by people who think the game is Video-gamey. If it's not the per-encounter abilities, if it's not the Paladin's Smite giving that guy more AC or that guy some healing or preventing that monster from getting Line of Sight on its abilities, if it's not the Fighter's ability to still do str damage even if he misses an attack, what is being complained about that's video-gamey?Hm.Regardless of them having looked at the previews, I've still seen the statements. Countless times. When the dragon fight came out. When we found out Dragons wouldn't be casting spells. After the Monster podcast.Would you like me to mosey on over to the WotC forums and pluck some quotes?</blockquote>
