It's not my favorite edition of D&D by far, but it's still my favorite WotC edition.I may not have liked it because of all of the AD&D and 3.X character concepts it invalidated at launch and then never managed to support-- but like every edition before it, the characters that people loved playing in Fourth should still be playable in Fifth. (Don't @ me. If you disagree, your opinion is bad and you should feel bad, regardless of which edition you support.)Honestly? I don't think being able to teleport as far and as fast as normal people can run is... all that damaging to the verisimilitude of a grounded fantasy setting. It's not something that's going to render a living world or a pre-industrial civilization as unrecognizable as, say, low-level healing magic. Cure light wounds and remove disease 1/day or even 1/week makes a world far more fantastic than being able to cast misty step at will ever could.Teleport is Paragon magic; it's the same spell level as raise dead for good reason.In my games, when I'm doing my homebrew settings with homebrew classes and ancestries, the character [USER=6704184]@doctorbadwolf[/USER] wants to play is just called an elf. Elves can teleport farther and walk faster as they level up, more or less regardless of class.</blockquote>
