[QUOTE="MrMyth, post: 5172326, member: 61155"] I think it would be fantastic if every book was perfect the second it was released. There are plenty of elements in the rules I'd change if I could, even though I enjoy the game. And yet, I recognize that having the perfect game - much less [I]my [/I]perfect game - is an impossibility. I think claiming, from a distance, that they just need a bit more playtesting and editing... is divorced from the reality of the situation. As it is, I am very, very glad they put out these updates. I'd much prefer this to the past, where we might have just as many problems in the books - which never got addressed at all. If someone is frustrated with having their character become illegal every month? They don't need to use the updates. Unless they are in the RPGA, in which case that is one of the costs of being in a fully supported living campaign. In a home game? No one is going to give you grief if you haven't made sure everything is perfectly up to date. And for most players, it will happen automatically just through use of the Character Builder. I can see the frustrations people have in the current system. But every other approach that I see suggested is either worse (in my view) or implausible. [/QUOTE]
