[QUOTE="DND_Reborn, post: 8648974, member: 6987520"] Ah, then a poll would have gotten better results IMO. Either way, bug or feature, depends entirely on your point of view I suppose. It would seem players who want more "power"-oriented games see it as a feature, players who want more resource management or view the world as organic (not taking the players/PCs preference into account) would see it as a bug to be dealt with or eliminated altogether. [B]EDIT:[/B] for the record, since I view the world as entirely organic and try to run it that way, the 5MWD wouldn't work well in my games--which is probably why if it [I]has happened[/I] it was a fluke of circumstances in timing for how the world was moving and the PCs lucked out in the timing of it and I didn't even recognize it. So, poll me as a no 5MWD. I would think 4E would be more geared towards that experience from what I understand of the game although I never played it. I have toyed with the idea of 5E becoming only per encounter, but gave up on it since it isn't organic as I see it. [/QUOTE]
