[Perhaps you have been given a perspective on why those that did not like 4e's direction REALLY didn't like it. They saw 4e as so much less that it could have been - for them]I went over to the D&D forum yesterday which is something I rarely do... and I was amazed at the vitriol being spewed out by so many 4e supporters at 4e. While the sprays also happened to involve Pathfinder more often than not as well, the rabid vitriol from a few who frequent EN World amongst many many others was simply breathtaking - the increased PF sales message obviously stirred up a hornet's nest. It is the division between 4e "classic" versus "essentials" though that has me concerned although the almost complete lack of moderation on the WotC boards was laughable in this regard. IF this was what D&D was all about I'd be worried... but in truth I'm not; or at least not yet.I accept that WotC moves very slowly (although this glacial pace may soon change). I'm almost positive though that they ARE listening. With the departure of Bill Slavicsek; I would say the new head will be looking to make their mark and defining a clear direction be it Essentials, 5e or some other direction. I think this year's Gencon is going to be very interesting to say the least in terms of D&D and the D&D brand. Whatever the case, I agree that WotC do need to step things up a notch. Paizo have shown them the power of having so many people all working in the same direction.Best RegardsHerremann the Wise</blockquote>
