I find it completely absurd when it comes to physical action (don't want to have the whole simulation/narration debate all over again, but I just can't grok strikes and manoeuvres being treated like ammo)It may be a bit more palatable if you can pick on the fly which known power you use for each slot, "3e sorcerer style", so you can use the same power twice if need be, or if there is some mechanic to convert slots into less powerful ones, without having them prepared so beforehand.But I'm not holding my breath. The wizard at ddx specifically had to chose his daily from his spellbook in advance. So yes, there are a few at will spells now, but this is hardly reducing Vancian casting, they really copped out on this one :\</blockquote>
