[QUOTE="Haffrung Helleyes, post: 5184020, member: 1068"] [b]Mearls and 4E[/b] There was a time when I was quite upset at the direction 4E went. But really, what do people like me have to complain about these days? There's a game out there called Pathfinder, that is pretty much exactly what 4E would be like if it _hadn't_ gone through a radical change. And most of the people who work on Pathfinder , just like Mike Mearls, did significant work on 3E. It's essentially like WoTC cloned itself so that it could better please all of us. The two things I am still unhappy about with regards to Hasbro/WoTC these days are the PDFs and the GSL. And really, the GSL has become a whole lot less important to me, since I'm not a 4E gamer anyway. If anything, it probably gave Paizo a good kick in the pants in the right direction. And I doubt that Mike's going to be in a position to change the GSL or the PDF policy -- I strongly suspect that both items were mandated from above, by people who aren't even gamers. I _want_ the 4E gamers to have a great system. And considering that Mike basically designed 4E, I can only think that this promotion will be good for 4E and people who play it. So, again, congratulations! Ken [/QUOTE]
