Well, here's the history, if you care: The first thread of the three--"A reason"--was actually about settings, or at least that was my original intention before the thread got derailed sometime in the first page or two; very few folks bought my premise as valid and then decided that the thread should be about The Real Reason that 4E isn't as popular as it could have been.I kind of lost interest/patience but then got dragged into (OK, I entered the fray of) a discussion about how 4E is not/does not feel like D&D. The frustration of that topic led to the 2nd post, which was this one - and my attempt to find a way to at least cognitively solve the issue. Again, failure. Although like the first one, I presented ideas that I still hold to be valid, even if no one else does!Finally, the third thread ENantiodromia was a kind of parody/performance art inspired by the first two. Thankfully the canny participants of ENWorld immediately picked up and embellished on the performance art aspect and saved me from not looking foolish.Yes, you are probably right...although, this thread has had some nice in-roads, no? I know that DannyAlcatraz really wants to play some 4E with me and pemerton! <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" />I like you.You know, I didn't think anyone would pick up on that but yeah, you are absolutely right. Speaking of big umbrellas, Hinduism is a massive umbrella with thousands of different ontologies (one could say, 10,001 to be exact, or is it 108?). But still, one could say that the Atman-Brahman idea is a drop within the ocean of Hinduism. Or would it be Hinduism 4.25E: Essentials?</blockquote>
