I very briefly played WoW and used to love anime. I like what I've seen so far of 4e. I'm currently gaming with a group that is half experienced and half new. Most of the experienced players are WoW-heads and aren't especially looking forward to 4e. Most of the new players don't play WoW, but are looking forward to 4e, especially cleaning up rules that they still don't understand.My current theory is that there is a significant division not based on age or other generalized notions of target audiences, but between DMs who have no problems planning their games, and those who do (whether it be due to lack of time, lack of experience with the rules, lack of stuff, etc.) If 4e is really pushing for the latter- and I hope it is- then the former group probably feels disenfranchised as they'd want a different focus for any refinements (or don't need them at all since things are working fine.)Just a theory...</blockquote>
