Message: <blockquote data-quote="Terramotus" data-source="post: 5648688" data-attributes="member: 7220">I've seen this trotted out before, but who, seriously, has problem with "use these at-will powers, and these others are limited use, but better".  If these people exist, I've never met them.  Are they playing D&D?  My wife is about the opposite of a "rules monkey" or whatever you want to call it, and while she spends more time building her character and selecting her powers than many other people, she has no problem with it at the table.Also, at the risk of offending people, there's a point to be made about gaming groups.  I've met many people that will do anything to get their gaming fix - PUGs at game shops, conventions, or even regular groups with people they don't like.  I'm too old for that.  I only game with friends, people who are worthy of the time I put into running a game every week.  If I didn't have enough friends for that, I'd hang up gaming for a while and do something else with my time.This is the part that I'm sure is really going to upset some people - I have difficulty believing that a person who can't understand the difference between Encounters and At-Wills, even after instruction, would be able to contribute anything positive to my games, or that I would spend my time on them.That doesn't make them bad people.  Everyone is born differently, and if they simply can't grasp the mechanics of the AEDU classes, that's certainly no fault of theirs.  However, that also doesn't mean I have to game with them, and I have serious reservations about the wisdom of aiming towards that market for game sales.</blockquote>
