[QUOTE="ForceUser, post: 5055045, member: 2785"] I am pretty disappointed with the lack of multiclassing. I know that it often caused issues in previous editions, and I know that in lieu of multiclassing 4E simply has way more classes and paragon paths. But I still miss it. I just quoted the second part because I want to toss it in my sig. :) I have two specific criticisms of 4E: 1. The way magic items are hard baked into the system. They are absolutely necessary and integral to a PC's power in a way that has never before been done in D&D, and I hate that because I've never been a DM who enjoys kitting out the PCs' paper dolls. I'm much more about fewer, cooler magic items. 2. The grid. While I like the grid and tactical combat, the powers and abilities of PCs are incredibly over-focused on the combat grid in 4E. It feels way more like a board game that previous editions, and I dislike that. Even though I enjoy the combat game, something intangible about D&D has been lost for me. [/QUOTE]
