[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 5609943, member: 19675"] Never seen this in 34 years of gaming. I find this [I]negatively[/I] impacts the narrative flow [I]for me.[/I] The previous editions of the game resonate with the fiction I read. Heroes run out of resources, they get tired... 4Ed, OTOH, reminds me of videogames I play (arcade games, mainly) in which recharging all but your most powerful resources can be done as easily as turning a corner...or even engaging the next opponent. Again, this sounds good to me. It's what smart, realistically written heroes do. Again, this reminds me more of cartoons and videogames than the fantasy novels and mythology I enjoy. Don't get me wrong- I like cartoons and videogames- but the FRPG hobby hooked me because I felt like I was actually a part of those stories. 4Ed's mechanics actually erect a barrier for me precisely because you are almost never in danger of running out of anything.
