I'm seeing a lot of this anti-4e sentiment, but what's interesting to note is that a lot of this is coming from the same people who swore they wouldn't upgrade to 3.5, and now they're defending it.

The issue here is that 3.5 was rushed, unnecessary and disappointing, leaving players doubting the next edition. In reality, 4e is making all the changes they were afraid to make in 3.5. This edition is literally the version that the 3.5e revision failed to live up to. Rather than saying "4e will suck because 3.5e sucked", we should rather be saying, "Because 3.5e sucked, 4e will be awesome."

I don't know about you, but I'm going to at least give it the benefit of the doubt until release day. http://d20.jonnydigital.com/
