Message: <blockquote data-quote="ShinHakkaider" data-source="post: 5423644" data-attributes="member: 9213">I ran a few 4E games when it first came out even though I was less than enamored with the system. I decided that I'd stay with 3.5 and then moved over to Pathfinder when it was released. I probably will never play 4E again though, despite the fact that it's a well designed system. One of the reasons is that it's not a play style than i'm interested in being part of. But then again I've played games that I'm not huge fan of before. Another part of it is a few people at my local D&D meetup were pretty boorish when it came to talking about 3x/Pathfinder. I'm pretty much content to play what I like and was pretty even handed about how feel about both systems (both have things that I like and things that I dont). But one of the organizers could not leave well enough alone and couldn't really post without taking a dig at 3x/Pathfinder whenever he could. That coupled with the people here who did pretty much the same thing for about a year (a lot of whom are still on ignore, which is the only way I can really stomach coming back here sometimes) has pretty much kept me from trying 4E again at any point, with ANYONE (even people that I like) even in a one shot game. Now I've seen the 3x people do the same thing and they're just as bad and in some cases worse. But to lay blame directly on one group isn't exactly accurate or fair. It's BOTH groups who are being equally douchey about this. If everyone simply played what they liked and didn't really give a crap about what anyone else was doing it would go a long way towards everyone getting along a little better. At this point it's like were all like sports fans, we're rooting passionately for our own teams, but taking a dump all over our rivals when ever we can, JUST BECAUSE.</blockquote>
