[QUOTE="Remathilis, post: 5769328, member: 7635"] Aw hell, just when I thought I was off the edition treadmill... I'm excited to see their initial beta test. I hear a lot about "lessons learned" but I'm quite curious to see [I]which[/I] lessons they learned. The only one I see implied is a de-emphasis of combat as rule-focus to the loss of everything else. It will be interesting though to see what elements return, which are kept, and what gets modified. Specifically I wonder about * Are classes going to run on a universal skeleton with only their power-choice really differing them, or will there be differences in ability acquisition speeds, advancement rates, etc. * What is the role of fluff in this "modulal" system: Is the implied world dead? * What is the role of OGL and the d20 Community beyond WotC?
