[QUOTE="El Mahdi, post: 5875799, member: 59506"] I do understand that it will be impossible to design a game that will appeal to 100% of D&D fans, but I'm betting that they can do so for a significant majority. Maybe even up in the 90% range (my opinion only, of course). But, I'd posit that you're either just one of the gamers that will be in that minority percentage (which is cool), or you're just not reading what's coming out of WotC very objectively. I'd recomend giving them the benefit of the doubt until you actually see the game (which you'll be able to see most of for free through the open playtests, once they start, and won't have to wait to buy it to get a good look). I've found that it feels much more satisfying and righteous to criticize poor design and customer relations once you have concrete proof.:p I have yet to see any 4E Hate coming from anyone at WotC. I've said this before, and I'll say it again: [B]I challenge anyone on these boards to bring forth proof that anyone at WotC has done this since the anouncement of 5E.[/B] It doesn't even need to be an edition or WotC bashing thread. Just start a thread in the 4E Forum with quotes of the negative things WotC has said about 4E since the 5E anouncement. However, I'd expect it to be fair and objective, including the positive things that have been said about 4E. I'm betting that either the thread never get's started due to a lack of negative quotes, or it's a thread with some quotes showing a very thin and purely subjective connection of this happening.:erm: If nobody finds that there are any such quotes that show this, then I'd ask that people quit saying this...as it's unfounded, completely biased, and totally unconstructive. :lol:ROTFLMAO!:lol: I think you understated that one a little bit.:D :cool: [/QUOTE]
