sorry, but i was very disappointed with 4th edition.
they tried so hard to make all classes be able to do something that they all ended up being different versions of the same base character. very video game in feel. no depth at all.

everyone can heal themselves. everyone gets a special power usable at will/per encounter/a day. boring.

27 years i've played this game. they've lost me.

pathfinder here i come

Typos and contradictions make enjoying the writing difficult!
