THHKotS - OOC

[Mathew_Freeman]

Lost my Panda . Found it now . Game not dead YET

Yeah, I'm slowly starting to dislike 4e... It is possible that one day this dies. Hopefully that won't happen before were to the end of KotS.

What's the problem with 4e? I'm curious.

Does it relate to pbp or just to the system in general?

To the system in general, which transfers heavily to pbp. My main gripe is the dependance of encounter maps, and the heavy involvement of tactital movement. I mean, it is on one hand good thing that 4e encourages moving around but when a warlock starts his every turn by thinking how he can move three squares without provoking OA's and ending back to where he was it turns to more like Disco Competition than RPG...

Next gripe is multiclassing. That's not multiclassing, that's, that's... I don't know... Something else.

Cleric... Where are my domain choices. All I can do to differentiate my cleric of Chaotic Evil from cleric of Lawful Stupid is one feat

The more I learn, the less I like. Many ideas have good intentions behind them, but they just don't work as intended.

I feel like a grognard...

[/rant] (for now)

I can completely understand where you're coming from regarding those issues.

If the Warlock is continuously coming back to the same position, then I'd rule that they're not moving at all...in fact I might have to speak to my own Warlock player about this, as it doesn't pass my "Idiot Check" senses. Or maybe I'll just throw dice at him.

I know it's beating a well-worn drum, but I think Clerics will get a LOT more interesting once the Divine book has come out. I can totally see right now how one 4e Cleric could feel a lot like another.

I seriously do hope this. But the truth still remains that they should have been that way from the beginning.

I have a lot more gripes but I'm not going to start ranting here, it just makes me feel worse about the game

So Blackrat. I've been sort of thinking about this and sort of unsure of how to proceed. If you DID add Domains into 4e, how do you think would be a good way to do it?

In 3e, they gave a little ability and an additional spell at every level. Now in 4e, the feat sort of takes place of the ability, but going through and adding an additional Power at every level for each Domain would take a LOT of work.

In my home campaign, I've also added Paragon and Epic Tier religious feats, but I'm still not sure if that's enough. [I've also been thinking about Domains on and off and haven't really come to a great conclusion].

[I'm of the opinion that adding a few things and houseruling should be good enough to cover most of what I dislike about 4e, is why I think about things like this].

It is strange... But this is where I have come to. I dont like 4e. Not at all. Infact I have come to despise it.

AS A DM

As a player however, I LOVE it. No really. It's so much more fun to play.

But I hate DM'ing 4e. So I am sorry, but THHKotS has come to an early death... Unless one of you wan't to take over and let me become a player

Sorry to hear that, Blackrat!

Sir Voluminous commits seppuku in sympathy.

I'm really not interested in a 3.5e conversion of the game, frankly, so I'll bow out at this stage. It was a fun ride, though.

Ditto here.

Cheers, LT.

 

[Ginnel]

Personally I don't think there is anything to bow out of, it is defunct an exgame as it were.

On another note personally I don't mind what system is being used I'll play anything.

Thanks for the while it lasted, shame it didn't go further
