[QUOTE="Pentius, post: 5720585, member: 6676736"] Like Hussar pointed out, a number of those things break base assumptions of 3e. Now, your games worked fine, I'm sure. With a bit of tweaking here and there to make sure of it. The 3e chassis can handle a number of different playstyles. So can 4e. I think it's easy to lose sight of that if you only have exposure to one or two groups of the system's players for too long. For example, going solely by what I read on these boards, your playstyle(not always clerics, not usually wands, low magic everywhere, few combats, etc) would seem to be the dominant style of 3e players. But that style is nothing like any group I've ever played 3e with was like, and isn't what any modules I've ever read for 3e seem geared toward. Those games worked out, too, though. If you've a mind to, maybe read the 4e boards sometimes(I lurk the PF and Legacy boards a bit. Always puts things in perspective to see that we all discuss more or less the same things). You'll see a variety of playstyles put forth there. Just for example, you wanna do your style in 4e? Low magic, few combats, little magic healing? 4e can handle it. [/QUOTE]
