[QUOTE="Aus_Snow, post: 4549570, member: 29112"] Then hey, move on to another RPG altogether! Or another hobby!!! :lol: ;) I mean sure, that is probably solid advice for many gamers indeed, but I [I]was[/I] kidding. Still, to be honest - and I know you did even go to the extent of adding the disclaimer that it was purely your opinion, and so forth - I really, honestly don't see 4e as 'the natural evolution of the game'. In fact, far from it. And, given that AD&D is quite a bit different to say, OD&D, and 3e is rather different to AD&D (let alone OD&D). . . and I don't mean in terms of natural evolution, either. . . well, it's a broken path already. There's no mending that now. And there's probably simply no way of anything evolving from 3e [U]and[/U] 1e [U]and[/U] OD&D (and all the rest.) Some people are fine with a nearly unrelated game, like yourself. Some aren't. Many aren't so sentimental as to cling to a brand name, no matter the amount of bizarre changes to the actual game. ;) [/QUOTE]
