[QUOTE="BryonD, post: 6727245, member: 957"] I'd pretty strongly dispute that claim. But entirely because of the vast lack of content being put out for 5E. 3E had a ton a CRAP (including plenty by WotC). But I had a ton of GREAT stuff to choose from and it was never an issue. If they were putting out a lot of great stuff now and something that I disliked was in the mix, then I'd happily ignore it and use what I liked. But if they put out one little thing and after all this time it is a complete reversal back to the approach that drove me and so many others away from the brand, that would be a major signal of trouble. 5E is HIGHLY adaptable. My game has major changes in it to push more towards the 3E style I prefer. Whether I stay with this hybrid or shift back to PF three years from now remains to be seen. (or some new and even better game, of course...) There are things that are overtly 3E in tone, and they don't exist in 5E RAW. There are things that are overtly 4E and they don't exist in 5E RAW. Change it. But what you are demanding isn't compromise, it is an ultimatum for change away from a compromise. 5E will never be as good as 4E at "being 4E". Hell, ask me right now "best edition ever?" 3E hands down. 3E beats 5E easily. But, I've been playing 3E for a long time now and 5E brings new coolness to the table, while still supporting a 3E-style game. Either enjoy a 4E-style 5E game, or just go play 4E. 4E is still there. Just as I may very well go back to PF. [/QUOTE]
