I am merely saying that it is my sense that the general climate is far less agitated, far more receptive to 5E than it was to 4E. Of course some folks aren't going to love or even like 5E - there is no way around that. And of course we'll know more in six months how the game is being received by the community, but as things stand now, my sense is that there is more receptivity towards and less hostility around 5E than there was 4E at the same point.First of all, I'm not making a value judgment against 4E - let's be very clear about that. But I am saying that many people who had issues with it felt like it was "Warcrafty." I'm not being specific about design issues because that is not what I'm talking about, interested in debating, and frankly isn't relevant to this thread. I'm talking about how well 5E is being received relative to prior editions, and what the general climates were around each edition, and why they were as they were. It is about perception, in other words.</blockquote>
