D&D 4E So why exactly does 4E make you angry

[Lord Zardoz]

As can be expected, there is a pretty signifigant amount of people who are unhappy about the 4E announcement. The reasons are not consistent, and I am curious about why that would be. Hence the Poll

You are missing the answer I wanted to tick (the only one).

4e makes me angry because it is such a long wait

I do not want to spend more money on replacing my 3rd Ed with 4th Ed stuff.
I do not want to spend money on the Digital Initiative.
I do not want MMO inspired mechanics in my D&D game.
I do not want to pay a subscription to play D&D via Digitial Initiative.

Those things do not make me angry about 4e.
I am not angry about 4e.

I'll miss my gnomes. *sob* Poor, poor Jorie and his badger depopulating ways.

There's also going to be the problem that even if gnomes come back, say, the next year in a PHB II, that there'll be DMs that won't allow me to ruthlessly use badgers.

Not to mention the ICC...We wouldn't want *them* to win...

Wow, 3/4 are not real.

But even you don't deny the International Communist Conspiracy!

Hey I fully agree a goal of 4th edition is a more sustainable business model. That equals more money.

LOL was replying to this as a serious post. Did not read all the question correctly. LOL

 

[Khairn]

I think you missed a couple of reason for being angry, namely the "lack of trust / faith in WotC to actually do what they say they are doing" and the "still mad at cancelling an aspect of D&D that I liked" such as Dungeon, Dragon, Grayhawk etc etc.

Of course are reasons to be angry at WotC and not necessarily 4E.

I thought this was a just for giggles type of poll, so I voted for all the ones that made me laugh the most.
