[QUOTE="thedungeondelver, post: 5771198, member: 34865"] [font=century gothic] Based on what I saw: - The foreshortening of the alignment system; needs to go back to G/E - C/L - N - Superpowered 1st level characters - Miniatures integration. VERY poorly done. - Introduction of "new" races (blink elves, demon people, dragon people). Should've stuck with core on top, those down the line. - Disassociated mechanics. - Retconning campaign worlds; blink elves and demon people could have been smoothly fit into, say [b]GREYHAWK[/b] with a DDI (or softcover!) update gazetteer that said "Oh the blink elves came from the distant west, demon people dwelt under the Sea of Dust, and have now arisen to take their rightful place as heir to the mighty Suel Empire"...but no. They didn't do that, so integrating the new races and retconning campaigns was done VERY poorly. [/font] [/QUOTE]
