My marriage is in serious trouble ever since 2008 put us on opposite sides of and edition war. So much that I almost tried converting to Pathfinder of all things, despite my revulsion for all things Paizo*. Unfortunately, they actually moved the disputed issues in the same direction as Wizards, so that was ruled out. I agree with her on the points but I liked other aspects of 4E enough to not want to run 3e anymore.
I have my concerns that 5th Edition will not include these things. So I am hoping to rally support and find out if others feel the same.
Demand one: REAL SKILL POINTS.
Does anyone out there like having truly flexible skill points spendable one at a time with a fine grained and broad skill selection to be a major feature of 3.X vs. PF and 4E? I miss non-combat skills. I miss taking one rank in Religion to represent my Catechism classes. I miss taking a rank of Swim for those classes I took at the YDMA** Pool.
We also miss synergy bonuses. Yes, they need to be controlled, but it made simulationist sense and encouraged having a shtick.
Does anyone else support this idea?
