[QUOTE="Reaper Steve, post: 3745832, member: 51528"] It seems that many people that have been playing D&D since 1e (like me) are making the generalization that all these changes will upset the old crowd (to which I belong.) I just want to say...IT'S ABOUT TIME FOR THESE CHANGES! Everytime I've tried to get interested in D&D again, I find myself quickly turned off by the 30 yaers worth of mish-mash that is just added to over and over again. I don't like the Great Wheel, or Planescape, or lots of other things aout D&D cosmology. And it's actually pretty hard to ignore. Which is probably why I like low-levels games...most of the wacky stuff can be ignored at that level. There it's like...points of light in world of darkness. And that's where I see 4e going...a return to a more medieval world, with monsters that aren't in plain sight. And with devils plotting, demons maddening, and angels protecting. So, to WotC, THANK YOU for cleaning out the closet...make sure you get all the way to the back shelves, and don't forget to sweep from under the rug. (And to those that like Planescape...you still have it...and for your sake I do hope WotC eventually revitalizes the setting. But, that concept is way too far removed from the common vision of medieval fantasy to be anywhere near the core rulebooks.) [/QUOTE]
