[QUOTE="mewzard, post: 7642692, member: 6958830"] No doubt, the Action Economy will be getting a lot of love and attention for how it shakes the game up. Death does seem interesting, to be sure. Even the risk of injuries from revival has potential. I'm curious to see how many will try for the Ritual casting to resurrect if they lack a proper caster with such a spell. Ritual Spells in general I'm curious about. Also, I like that Initiative is impacted by your actions. Perception being the default is good, but I also like that it can factor in, say, your stealth result if you sneak into combat, or your Diplomacy perhaps if you steer a conversation in a way to give yourself a chance to act quickly. Agreed, not every single encounter or action should revolve 100% around combat. Sometimes you want to beat someone with prose or a good ol' fashioned Rock Off. Between various weapons and armors having little abilities and stances for combat plus the massive number of feats, it does feel like it's going to be easy to play multiple of the same class and make them come off as quite varied. That's also quite an exciting aspect. Avoiding "I know the perfect broken feat path" or "I need to follow this guide exactly to be good", you just go for what feels right. If something doesn't work out, give it a bit of retraining down the line. Learning from one's own failings can be quite exciting. [/QUOTE]
