My sense is that 4th ed worked for me not because of powers, tiers or roles in isolation but because these mechanics came together and privileged a certain high fantasy style which was pretty gonzo even at low levels. I have enjoyed it, it was not perfect and I also understand how it could annoy people. 3rd ed elements also came together to support a certain style which had a more gritty feel at low levels which changed quite dramtically around 7th level or so.I agree that DDN does not have any one big thing and that the mechanics dont not seem to have a style. These seem to be locked in the basic, standard , advanced modules. Until we see and maybe playtest DDN within its modules, it is going to be hard to see whether DDN is going to be worth buying.</blockquote>
