[QUOTE="Belzamus, post: 5249921, member: 61612"] I don't personally have anything against 4E, it's just that 3.X does everything I could possibly want it to do, and with the addition of your two books, U_K, it's just the perfect system to realize my setting within. I have my entire world, from the Time Lord down to NPCs you could meet on the street, statted out, codified, and balanced against each other both in terms of the game itself, and in terms of their flavor. Everything aligns perfectly, they can all do exactly the things I envision them to do, particularly because 3.X is just so amazingly flexible (let alone Ascension's flexibility) that I can make up whatever I need to perfectly realize my characters. What it really comes down to for me, is that 1.) I don't want to spend money or time learning a new system when the one I use is perfect for me in every way, and 2.) I honestly don't feel that 4E could represent my setting the same way that 3.X can. Understand that I do this purely as a personal hobby, so there are no "DM rulings" for out of combat abilities; I want those right there on the character sheet alongside the more actively useful ones. Even once (if) you get your 4E material published, I don't think it'll be enough to smooth over the problems I have between 4E and my particular setting. Plus...I really have no desire to stat up everyone *again*. In the end, there's not that much wrong with 4E, to me, so much as I have no need for it. My two copper pieces. [/QUOTE]
