[QUOTE="Kaptain_Kantrip, post: 262857, member: 546"] Um, have you even read Harn? Because if you had, you would know what I'm talking about. It requires you to rewire your brain (I had to rewire mine) in order to appreciate it, and it requires a higher level of reading comprehension to understand. It is not written for 13-14 year olds like D&D is. It is written for 21 year old plus people of a college education level. Flamebait was not intended, but I fail to see how you can testify in a public forum that 3e is not basically Diablo II with pen & paper, if you use the game as intended and as written. You certainly don't have to use it as such (and that is a strength of the system)), but the video game mentality of it tends to seep through and taint anything else you might choose to do with it, even with heavy tweaking. I know this because I have been tweaking 3e/d20 since its release. Over and over. The "vidiot" mentality sticks to it like flypaper. It can be subdued, but it can never be completely erased.
