[QUOTE="outsider, post: 4011720, member: 54690"] In some cases, that is correct(which is why I noted that it's not relevant that some of those complaints were things that came from previous video games. They may have came from previous video games, but I doubt they would have been used in D&D if it wasn't for WoW). In others, not so much. Ignoring precedents set in previous versions of D&D so you can blame things on WoW is something that gets on my nerves quickly. I'll freely admit that WoW is influencing D&D. And it should, as WoW is basically computerized D&D and it's succeeding on a scale that is unprecedented for D&D. There's alot of good things there for D&D to swipe. There's alot of bad things too, but until I need a group of 25 to kill a single dragon(or worse a single elf), or I need to kill 2000 orcs to get a new hat, or I have to spend 5 hours picking flowers before I go into a dungeon, or I have to spend 30+ hours a week playing D&D for my character to amount to anything, I'll trust WotC to be able to seperate the good from the bad.
