[QUOTE="n00bdragon, post: 5938838, member: 6689371"] I am beginning to think 5e is nothing more than the most elaborate trolling the world has ever conceived. I realize the danger in statements like "How else can you explain X?" but really the choice of Caves of Chaos as a playtest was eyebrow raising enough, then to find out he's taken the time to give it the internet drubbing it so richly deserves? This man was totally on board with 4e and the game design principles shown above straight up through that cheery set of Christmas layoffs then in the course of weeks the game shut down all production of new material for a year and then Essentials rolled out to the tune of "Wow did we mess up. Here's us trying madly to fix 4e." I find it hard to swallow that a man's strongly held and longly held beliefs could alter so quickly. Either he had a traumatic brain injury and the man at the helm of D&D is not the man we once knew or he's pulling a Glen Beck "Screw it. If they want crazy I'll give them 110% crazy." [COLOR=Red]It is one thing to show disagreement, another to post derogatory remarks. Claiming "he had a traumatic brain injury" is the top of uncool I have seen in the 5e talks until now. Please be less rude in the future. Lwaxy[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
