5ever, or until 2024
Where did this tangent come from?
4e was built around one big fight after another. Number of rounds and viable combat options for low to mid-level characters--and I think these were linked--were much higher than in other editions. I don't think it was thinking time--3e was the worst for that.
A main tell was that many fans of 4e early on adopted the house rule that monster hp was cut in half, and monster damage was doubled. Then they said it worked great--but the players will have options on their sheets that just sit there.
But anyways, cool Goodman Game products for 5E are on their way!
