[QUOTE="El Ravager, post: 249217, member: 738"] It is true that if people would like to play like that, then they have every right to. It does, however, effect me if the books WotC chooses to publish caters to that style of play. Furthermore, if the books cater to that style of play then that is the way new people to the hobby will tend to play which, IMO, hurts the hobby. That style of play leads away from creativity and imagination which is what the game is all about. Its fine with me if someone has fun playing a game that lacks that but that does not mean that the game is as good as one that is creative and imaginitive. I truely hope that the upcoming BoVD will be more than just prestige classes, feats and descriptions of icky stuff. Hopefully it will give tips and ideas on making villians with motivations and full personalities as well as ideas on structuring adventures and campaigns around them. Possibly the ELH will more than numbers, crunchy bits and rules for kewl powers and will provide DMs with ideas to create adventures for these powerful heroes. Something with more substance than "here are new bad things that epic levels will enable your PCs to be powerful enough to Hack". ===== El Rav [/QUOTE]
