[QUOTE="Cbas_10, post: 3975640, member: 55767"] First, I really liked the changes to the cosmology for 4E. Now, I really like the Points of Light concept, as defined by Baker in that post. It's all about [i]options[/i] and toolkits for the DM and players. If I want to keep using my Greyhawk stuff and incorporate new 4E ideas, I can. Cool! If you want to use a homebrew setting, you can get the same value out of the 4E ideas. [i]Awesome![/i] When I first read about the PoL stuff, I got the impression that there was a single setting where all of the various adventure locations, towns, etc were isolated and separated areas. As if all areas of wilderness between towns were trouble-filled zones of wandering monsters....*Yawn* Happily, that is not the case, unless a DM wants it to be that way. As much as I'm not liking the nearly totally combat-focused roles/classes, I'm sure that there are other aspects of characters we just have not seen yet. The interesting changes to the setting and approaches to the use of setting elements is keeping me intrigued by 4E. [/QUOTE]
