they made this. it was called the book of nine swords and it ruled. made being a fighter actually good.

they built that into the basis of 4e and it ruled

also what out of combat mechanics was 4e missing

skill challenges werent nearly as robust or interesting as combat and you cant even pretend they were

contrast that poo poo w agon or reign

there's a bit of a difference in acknowledging the flaws in 4E's implementation of skill challenges and pretending that previous editions and 5E had better (or even equivalent) rules for handling such things

as long as we're edition warring I'd say the average "4venger" has much better odds of knowing other RPGs exist and being able to appreciate their various strengths and weaknesses than unironic fans of 3.x or 5e

huh, who could've ever predicted that bad-dem incumbents would only give lip servide to medicare-for-all to avoid primary challenges?

quote:

quote:
Short version is this: As you know, "Medicare for All" is language that can either refer to Medicare as a public option or Medicare as a vehicle for single payer. It's intentionally confusing (my DC consultants advised me to use this language, and I told them I wanted to be very clear about where I stood). The language below (including talking about Medicare for All in the context of "access to health care for all" and "improving on the successes of the ACA") sounds consistent with the public option version of Medicare For All and not a single payer approach.

He was referring to his opponent's notice. On a follow up phone call he went on and on about the DCCC and their associated consultants are telling their candidates to say whatever it takes to trick Democratic primary voters. Admirably, he refuses but he's one of the few who is refusing. So now, I guess, we have to ask candidates for fuller explanations about why they're for Medicare-For-All and if they will pledge to co-sponsor John Conyers' Medicare-For-All legislation, H.R. 676, as 116 House Democrats have, the most recent being the just-elected Jimmy Gomez, who won a special election in Los Angeles this summer, beating a conservative "ex"-Republican.

I like how you all are stumbling over yourselves to prove which system is better. Much like establishment dems, you can't see that the systems are fundamentally flawed due primarily to the entrenched class divisions.

what games even do classless progression that well? vagrant story? though you can't exactly specialize in magic, you can get a bit more mp and spells but it's just a bonus to chain combat

It's not THE problem because DnD has many problems, but it is like 9/10s of the problems.

honestly I don't have a strong enough regional preference to call something "the best", it's really about what I'm in the mood for and the actual execution

Alabama-style is unambiguously the worst though
