Nice read :) Just a minor note on Presaging : in a Sandbox where you can have any of 5-6 Adventures / Quests to run or even be interspersed, its quite easy to do presaging along the way. Of course, depending on the time interval and subtlety, don't mind it when your players can't remember the matter later on.

I was looking up "the game of the imagination" quote that was used as a tagline for many Dungeons and Dragons products in the early years. My point was to see if that could be the tagline now.
Perhaps the trick to getting a new version of the game to work/sell is to go back to what drew us to the game in the first place!

I hate agree after reading the campaign manual for Forgotten Realms it seems to be twin of D&D setting. In the plots and rumors part I find there not enough hooks to create your own rpg campaign. If I was running a game now I would doing it from the 3.5 system.
I would like to see stats for Giants and Titans (Giant Series covered this) To much emphasis on Menzoberran not enough on other Drow cities for example. I never like to run campaigns in cities where it is well documented in...

It's a well written critique. I don't know how the brand survives. It is already split. A new edition will alienate everyone who invested in 4e and is unlikely to win converts from those who have stuck with 3e/Pathfinder.
In the name of balance, fourth edition created a mechanic where all the defenses were passive. This made a magic attack feel the same as a melee attack. Without players making active saving throws, they were left waiting for their turn to come around ... a wait which was...
