[QUOTE="Thalionalfirin, post: 5285385, member: 15407"] Thanks for the question! I've actually been thinking about this a lot lately and I think my answer is also going to be "no". I guess I'm a grognard but I remember when we referred to characters as "characters" and not "builds". They evolved as the story did. I really do enjoy playing 4e and do build characters (and do it pretty well, I guess), but a part of me keeps telling me that this isn't the way I want to play. Now, I don't want to go back and play B/E/C/I or 1e (which I enjoyed immensely at the time and what probably influences my thoughts on this subject) because the game has evolved, but I do miss the wonder of the old days when finding a magic item was cool rather than worrying about how it fits into my "build". I think that's why I'm looking forward to Essentials. Maybe there will be an option for me to be happy with again. [/QUOTE]
