I just think attributes aren't really needed from a game design perspective.The problem is the main attack for any character needs to scale up as you level, so neglecting the main stat is such a bad idea that almost no one does it. Once something becomes necessary it's no longer a meaningful choice, therefore it should be eliminated. Same thing with (opposed) skills... you need to keep boosting the relevant attribute to "keep up". The above, along with feat dependencies, certain powers and other attribute related things, make the game more complicated. Especially at character creation, attributes are a big trap for any newbie and a big time sink for those who read every possible option all the way up to level 30 just so they know which attributes they need to get what they want.Is it broken? No, not really. Could they have designed the game to be simpler while still keeping the flavor? Yeah.</blockquote>
