jdrakeh. When it comes to the 4e forum, where we are, those are the two options.
See? This is a problem. Apparently you think that you get to tell me what I can and cannot do. News flash: You don't.
There is no reason to express that you play other games instead, and how awesome they are because they don't have the problem that dissuades you from playing 4e.
Except that I was incorrectly told in a rather matter-of-fact manner that I had only two options available to me — buy the uncorrected 4e books or not game at all. The
only reason I mentioned playing other games was because it is a perfectly reasonable alternative (and, more to the point, because it's the alternative I chose).
If you go back to my very first post in this thread, you'll note that I say the uncorrected books have been keeping me out of 4e
so far. I have every intention of buying into it when I know that the books include errata. But I play other games, too. And if it's between playing other games and not gaming at all? Well, I'd be a moron to turn down other games.
Now,
you may not want to play other games and spend your money on uncorrected books, fine; but you're in no position to tell me what
I can and cannot do. Also, again, I haven't said
anything about the awesomeness of the other games I play. I also haven't said that 4e is a bad game. So, again, you're still putting words in my mouth. Think you could cut that out?
