Jumping in on my gaming debate indulgence! haha <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> Ok, to your points... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> There is plenty of resource management, try playing a 9th level wizard vs a 1st level one, and check it out.You have to get over hit points as actual physical damage. Hit points are moral, drive, physical strength and more all rolled in to one. I hit a monster, and you get a surge of Adrenalin as the combat is swinging in your favor. I look at a lot of hit points as moral, and moral is a huge part of any conflict.Combat in 3.5 is a lot more picky about all the AOOs, cover and other stuff. 4 is more too the point but I think without over simplifying the tactics.Agreed but its better that they are part of the system from the get go.I've never had this problem and remember as you go up in levels you get more encounter and daily powers. Think how lame a 1st level 3.5 spell caster is heck, any low level caster in 3.5 is bbbboooorrriiinng. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />Agreed.I really think the new books are some much more logically laid out. No more flipping through multiple sections for related materials and worse book to book! Role playing does not need rules...The DM guide is a great book for how to role play in your game. Better than the 3.5 DM I think.For me 4E is a better game, I don't care if it was called small caves and furry rabbits, it would be better than 3.5 to me. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /> For one thing the balance on player imersion and involvement is just so much better in 4E, I think the game just plays better.Doing a 3.75 just seems like tape on a broken record to me... but I'm open, maybe I'll try it one day.</blockquote>
