[QUOTE="RevTurkey, post: 6416200"] I thought they promised some options to tailor the game more towards different play styles?..like how to use a grid etc...and ways to tweak the system like the healing times and such...I don't feel like they have lied to anybody so far. I think that is a bit strong and unfair. From what I have seen they are being true to their word and giving us options like they said they would. Feats are in the PHB if you want to use them etc..Also, if they do change their mind and do things differently upon final release, what is the big deal? It's a game about waving magic wands and swords about against Goblins and Ghouls...as long as it does a reasonable job of simulated this then we can enjoy it for what it is. I was heavily critical of the playtest process and I made some stupid, stupid comments that I regret. The game is 5th Edition not 4th, not 3rd, not 2nd, not 1st, not B/X. Play those games if the changes or lack of options is a problem. Perhaps if there are no options at all in the DMG then I could agree that they will have been misleading but I think they will have choices...more in the realm of recreating the 'feel' of other editions rather than trying to emulate exact rulesets.
