[QUOTE="Sadras, post: 6006901, member: 6688277"] This is a good thread, and I hope a lot of other 4E players read this and relook at the 4E playtest material for there is a lot that has been carried over from 4E into D&DNext, I am truly surprised that you dont see that as a 4E player. It actually is a beautiful blend of editions. The system feels light, unassuming, easily adaptable, user friendly and flavourful not particularly pandering to any one edition. Of course, I share your concerns in WotC recapturing some of its lost market, they have steep competition with Pathfinder and 4E loyalists. I do feel that the majority of players who loved 2E are really going to take to this edition (maybe I'm projecting to much of myself here :)). 4E is pretty much a complete mature system, besides fixing some of the math, and just bloating more powers for the later classes, I felt there was very little in terms of improvement because, AND THIS IS IMPORTANT, the playstyle was largely defined by the system/mechanics (at least a lot more than previous editions). I appreciate the 4E system, and view it as a necessary step/experiment in the evolution of D&D, especially in having to deal with its real competition being xbox, playstation and PC games. Dornam I can only advise you take a closer look at the playtest material, especially the fighter to see the 4E influence within 5E. It's there, I assure you. [/QUOTE]
