[QUOTE="McTreble, post: 6223032, member: 76771"] For all of you, in [B]ANY ONE [/B]of these threads who claimed they haven't seen enough modularity, enough 4th edition mechanics, enough Vancian spellcaster options, etc... This was only the CORE game. It was only ever sold as a playtest of the CORE game. Yes, they peppered in some wild ideas that might become something else later, but just because you haven't seen tactical rules, or kingdom building rules or (haha) RP rules, doesn't mean they aren't coming. As far as I know, WotC has always stood by that idea, so please consider that long term approach before you start the whining machine. Also, for any of you who complain that WotC just "went ahead" and made decisions without presenting a poll and asking what we wanted about this or that, or even major issues... get over it. It's not your company; they want our input, but not on EVERYTHING. They took a huge risk in this transparency, giving away a product and admitting to no revenue stream for at least a year, but that's not enough for some of you. You want to be consulted on every decision (Don't get me started on the inane "damage on a miss" arguments that exist lately) no matter how minute. Maybe Mearls should ask all the neckbeards which hand he should use to wipe next time? [/QUOTE]
