[QUOTE="billd91, post: 5592340, member: 3400"] Oh really? Am I factually incorrect when I say that the powers of 4e remind me of City of Heroes? They do. They may not remind you of them, but then, that's why the impressions and connects are subjective, not objective. There are virtually no facts that are subject to significant dispute. Does the repeated use of at will powers once other powers are expended in an encounter against a solo with gobs of hit points remind some players of repeatedly hitting primary attacks in WOW? Probably. Is that a fact subject to dispute? Not really, their feelings are their feelings. There's a huge conceit in thinking that "facts" underlying opinions may be incorrect. Most often the facts simply are that someone holds the feelings they hold. They may be based on a superficial impression or an unusual experience, but that doesn't make them wrong. Every time I hear "Break Up Song" by the Greg Kihn band, I think of issue #135 of the X-Men. It feels very X-Men 135 to me. There's no fact that you can claim to disprove that "Break Up Song" is X-Men 135. The two things only have a connection within my personal experiences. [/QUOTE]
