I feel meh. Meh to pessimistic.
I'm happy with my 4E game, and I know that I can play 4E for several more years without getting tired of it. I haven't felt a need for a new edition.
Nothing I've heard from WotC so far has made me excited about 5e. To the contrary, i don't feel like WotC is talking to me when it talks about 5e. Mearls and Cook (and whoever else) are talking about 5e solving problems that I don't have and having features that I'm not particularly interested in.
Moreover, I'll believe in a modular, balanced 5e when I see it. I don't have much faith that WotC can produce it.
AND. Nobody is talking about how WotC is going to sell the modular game they're making. Will I be able to play the game I want to play at launch, or will I have to wait for whatever module to come out? What are they going to charge for each module? Really, what does "module" mean in this context? I'm an optimistic person by nature, but I can't help be skeptical about 5e.
