[QUOTE="Iosue, post: 6100182, member: 6680772"] This is a bizarre non-sequitur. I have made no argument like that, in fact I did the exact opposite when I said, I have further [i]repeatedly[/i] said in various threads and various forums (the latest in the post [i]just before yours[/i]) that I understand 4e fans being upset that nothing of late in announcements or playtests seems targeted towards them. Let me review this particular discussion: Bluenose: Mearls seems to have few problems with being able to sleep limbs back on, though. Me: Yeah, that's weird, given what he's said over the years and his involvement with 4e virtually from inception. My pure speculative theory is that he's either Born Again Old School, or he's basically taking the design role of advocating for the non-4e base. You: [COLOR=#333333]Mike was never IN CHARGE of anything in 4e. I don't know why people insist on elevating his role there. [/COLOR]Me: I never said he was in charge. I said he was part of its design and development from the beginning. Disagree with him if you like, but give him his due when it comes to 4e. You know he came up with AEDU, right? You: [COLOR=#333333]Your argument is essentially "Mike was responsible for the way 4e is designed, so you must therefore be happy that he is designing 5e since it will thus be designed with the same sensibilities"! [/COLOR]Me: WTF? NO ONE said that he was, and it's not PARTICULARLY GERMANE TO THE DISCUSSION. [/QUOTE]
