[QUOTE="Warpiglet, post: 7416223, member: 6689161"] I don't like how small they drew halfling feet and how large Tiefling tails and horns are in the art. And... Wow. I am pretty smitten. That's about it. Love it. I even started DMing it which has not happened since 1e. Found previous editions fun with feats and skills but did not like the work to DM. This edition has as much customization as I require complexity that is "just right" (for me) and other things that I wished for but did not dare hope for. I am old school I guess and dislike making magic items too easily and in fact dislike their sale as if they are a commodity like corn in America and oil everywhere. Despite playing wargames, I disliked the difference in a battle being a five foot step or some such. I like that some magic is back that breaks rules and changes stories (wish teleportation etc.). I like that they used our old house rules about hit points and spell slots as actul rules of the game. Nearly anything they changed from AD&D 1e (besides action economy etc.) we were using as house rules. So in answer to the question I hate nothing and love a lot. Exceeds my expectations in all ways save AD&D 1e seemed a bit more dangerous... Yeah, sorry. I don't hate it at all. [/QUOTE]
