Mort said:The simple question is - Does 4e model the kind of campaign you want to run better (with better being more "better for you?" as in easier, simpler, faster or whatever criteria you set) than previous editions? If the answer is "yes" then 4e is probably a good fit for you, if not then it's not.
QFT
As the debate between editions gets more and more heated, remembering that simple question is a must. There are a lot of players who believe that 4E will make their game "better" and a lot of players who believe 4E won't make their game "better".
As additional information is released players from both sides of the debate may change positions which is completely understandable. Being able to share our current impressions and opinions is the main reason why many of us are here.
