From what it sounds like, 4e may return to that, and that has me excited. Just being able to read the 4e MM for enjoyment and ideas is great.

Mouseferatu said:It has not been my experience that having monsters with fewer abilities has led to less interesting combats. The combats themselves are both more fluid and easier for the DM to run, leading him to make more interesting use of what abilities they do have. More to the point (for those asking about the pit fiend), remember that he's not meant to be a solo encounter. So even if he individually has fewer abilities to throw at the party, the DM's "team" as a whole is going to have as many, if not more, as they had in 3E.
Me too. I'm very pleased. Not only is this the first real opinion I've seen on the new edition from someone who is not being paid to recite copy for 4E, but it's an opinion from someone whose opinion I think is generally good, and whose work I have enjoyed in the past.Piratecat said:This is a good sign. I value Ari's opinion.
