[QUOTE="Mustrum_Ridcully, post: 4156611, member: 710"] They don't judge the game, they just judge the previews. I think 4E might be the best thing since sliced bread. That makes it easy for me to go out, get the rules, and see if my hopes come true. I might still be disappointed, but it's not my expectation. Someone else might think 4E is a bad idea, judging by the previews. Why should he feel compelled to spend money on the books if he expects that they will be of little use of them (except maybe to say "Told you it sucks!"). But this doesn't really seem to apply to the described players. They already made up their mind, and did use everything they could find (or make up) to support their judgment. I remember having done the same thing as a child when it came to testing food. If I decided I wouldn't like it, there was no way probing it would change my opinion in front of my parents! ;) [/QUOTE]
