      Ok, I have a few problems with this. I agree that if it doesn't feel like D&D then it is a failure, as let's face it D&D is a big enough phenomenon in the gaming world that it can't really be changed (kind of like Star Wars). My problems are that if the mechanics of the past are what worked, then why not used them? To me, fighters were much more creative and fun in 1e/2e than either 3e or 4e, though 4e wasn't too bad, they just felt like any other class with different trappings. My other issue...

There is no set level were a campaign ends, that will far from group to group or camapign to campaign. I am currently starting a new camapign (in a Pathfinder/3.5 hybrid system) at 8th to 9th level, becase it fits the design for the campaign. When will it end, when the players...

      It makes me happy to see that the lead designer of 5e is actually in tune with how I view magical items.

      I like the Passive and Active Perception system and quite commonly will tell the more Perceptive players "By the way, some noises up ahead are catching your attention", the player can then ask the questions like "what are the noises, where are they coming from?" and then I may ask for a roll.
      Likewise with passive knowledge, I'll tell the player " the creature crouched before you is a ghoul and is known for its abilty to to disable a person from it's bite " bit of general knowledge with no...
