To the 4.0 guy: Seriously. Read the rulebook. From the 'skill challenge' bits, to the monster entries... it is exactly what you'd expect from some video game bestiary, format and all. You go nova with your dailys, still don't kill the first routine encounter of the day, auto attack the huge sack of HP with your at wills. Repeat, or five minute workday it. And since stuff scales even when it doesn't make sense to (so the torch is a level 10 fire now?) it gets the FF8 effect where enemies level up as you do so there never is any actual progress.

Further, the enemies are all about the same. Even NES RPGs managed to give enemies different abilities. This is more like that guy who only learned how to change sprites. Because it is so bland and generic, about the most tactical thing you can ever do is outrange and kite the MOB.

You've never played the game. That's not how it works. I'm not going to argue about it because you've made up your mind without having played it (or even read it thoroughly enough to see how none of that is true), but I suggest that until you have played the game, you stop talking about how it plays.

In 4.0 all the challenges are so bland and generic that all you have to do to beat the many big sacks of HP is outrange them. Yup. Just like in the MMOs it is based on, kiting the dumb MOBs is the best strategy. At least then spamming your At Wills to take off the other 50% of its health is slightly less tedious.

Spoken like someone who's never played 4e. You don't have to like it, but you don't need to pretend it's something it's not. HURR DURR IT'S AN MMO is old, tired, and as true of 3e as of 4e (just look at how important items are and how you need them to beat level-appropriate enemies).

a minute on the gaming den has taught me everything I ever need to know about your desire to see a better PFRPG.

Eventually you'll learn that you can't win at the internet, until then please stop stirring, it's tiresome.

you boring, boring child.

In this thread, it's okay to call Psychic_Robot names while complaining about how mean Psychic_Robot is for calling people names. What is wrong with you?

I was going to post a view point but there is far to much aggression and negativity in the thread so I'll take a rain-check too.

Is someone disagreeing and backing up their points really that "negative"?
