[QUOTE="Khairn, post: 3717616, member: 20153"] [I]note from Plane Sailing - these posts were split out from a different discussion thread[/I] It may seem funny but some of us really think that the direction WotC is going with 4E is a mistake. Both for the game that we've enjoyed playing for years (decades in my case) and for the industry in general. And as this is an open forum where differing opinions are being requested and shared I felt it was as good a place as any to voice my perceptions. There are many reasons why players are upset. For some its because they've spent so much money already on 3E and 3.5 and feel the new edition (3rd new edition in 8 years) is just a money-grab by WotC, for others its the game features that have been announced do not suit their gaming style, and for others (like me) its our concern about the digital / internet functions that are being developed in tandem to support and enhance each other. And I think its important to talk about these concerns as I'm not the only one who has them. As for my comments having less weight ... I became irrelevent to WotC when their decision was made to make "online gamers" (both MMORPG and RPG) their target market for 4E and the support they will provide for the game. I'm an avid MMORPG, RPG and online gamer, but many of my gaming buddies are not. So much of what is being offered is going to be denied them simply because they dont have regular computer & printer access. But your situation may be different, and if 4E excites you, then I'm happy for you. To me and my group its not doing a thing. [/QUOTE]
