[QUOTE="Nork, post: 5894911, member: 59879"] If he was pushing an agenda of "bring back 3E, because 3E is D&D" instead of "make a good game without worrying what it is or isn't", then he could very well have been that one guy fighting to make something the 3E faction of edition warriors want vs all the other guys wanting the opposite. Personally, I'm glad he is gone. He has always given me the impression that he thought 3E was perfect. If something is perfect, then anything that isn't it is wrong by virtue of not being it. That plus other baggage that he had going into this made me suspect that there was either going to be a meltdown or a product with a very specific agenda. Maybe it wasn't reasonable for me to think those things, but then again, here we are with Cook leaving the team and taking a jab at the company on the way out. Not the biggest meltdown, but a meltdown none the less. I'm just glad it was early and relatively minor. Of course, some of the impressions that make me leery of Cook could have made Cook someone's best hope for 5E. [/QUOTE]
