[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 5661817, member: 22779"] Ahh, I see. You're cherry picking a single line out of the quote. Never mind the rest of the quote which places everything in context - that the issue is only a playstyle issue (something that becomes even more clear given the context of the quotes I provided) and not a systemic one. Sure, if I actually said what you claim I'm saying, you'd be right. However, given the context in which I said it, the quotes I provided to show proof of what I stated, and the fact that you have to truncate my post to a single line and ignore everything else I've posted to make your point kinda points to being taken out of context. For example, my immedietely previous post [url=http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?p=5659259#post5659213]Post 410[/url] which possibly misattributes arguments to Imaro (sorry about that, got the names confused) talks about exactly what I'm saying: Which, for those keeping score would be best said as such: For some people the issue is not systemic, but playstyle. For some people, the issue doesn't exist at all, leading them to presume that anyone who has these issues could fix said issues simply by changing their playstyle. I further point out that if the problem wasn't systemic, then why did Paizo ALSO address the issue? For those who claim that their playstyle resolves the issue, shouldn't Paizo be equally a problem? --------------- As to the "static" world model - come on. Unless your world has drastic changes on a DAILY basis, spending an extra day or three resolving an adventure will not make a huge difference to your game world. However, I look at it like this: In 3e I MUST use a non-static world. I have no choice. If I use a static world, then I run into the caster issues. Thus, the mechanics are dictating my playstyle. In 4e, I don't have to use a static world. Sometimes it is, sometimes it isn't. If the players want to spend three months looting the dungeon, go right ahead. Maybe there will be consequences, maybe not. It's 100% up to the DM. In other words, the mechanics are not dictating my playstyle. Whether or not I happen to LIKE that playstyle is irrelevant.
