      Maybe it's protective stupidity or a general unawareness of what's supposed to be causing fear to them, due to a sheltered lifestyle.

      Reading my 4th Edition PHB from 4 years ago:
      "This is the 4th Edition of the DUNGEONS & DRAGONS game. It’s new. It’s exciting. It’s bright and shiny. It builds on what has gone before, and firmly establishes D&D for the next decade of
      play."
      So ... what's up? Why is WotC rewriting this franchise from the ground up ... again .... 6 years ahead of schedule?

      On a side note, when I create pirate NPC's, I usually include a mix of fighters, rogues, and fighter/rogues, as well as some casters. Clerics of sea gods or wizards with parrot familiars, even a druid with his water and air magicks and a monkey companion, works great.
      When I PLAY a pirate, however, I generally create him with the ranger class. Why? Because when I play a pirate, I like to dual wield a sword & dirk (or a sword & flintlock, if they're available). The ranger's inability...

      Maybe you could just take out the "Expert" term in the main titles of the full core rules, and maybe just make it a clearly visible, but removable and unobstructive sticker note on the books' cover. Other than that, it's a great idea. There could be the core rules plus adequate amounts of rule modules, feats that allow gameplay to resemble those from other editions (here's some meta-magic feats which could make 1e/2e and 4e style spellcasting possible: ...

      I thought it made sense. He's saying that mechanics serve a purpose and if a new mechanic does its job every bit as well as some old mechanic, then it IS just as good as the old mechanic.
      Of course, you and I know that two different mechanics rarely accomplish the exact same end result ... but that's okay. Maybe the intricacies of the old mechanic were better in some ways, but as long as the new mechanic is better over all, with its own valuable intricacies, then so be it.
      The real...

      Fair enough, but I'm not at all sure what you're describing qualifies. I mean what DID happen with Essentials? There was nothing wrong with it, but it wasn't as if the Essentials classes entirely worked within the 4e system. There were plenty of cases where feats, items, and other things didn't really work with e-classes. They used resources differently, which was one of the nice things about basic 4e, all classes have the same resources. Do we have this in the case of your multiple ways to cast...

      I suspect the disparity between racial ability score boosts will accelerate power creep. Nonhuman races will inevitably get mechanical options that are better than Human options, in order to “balance” the races better. But then the Human will use the better Nonhuman options as a baseline for new Human options. And the armsraces soar up from there.

      Giving humans a blanket +1 to ability scores is a pathetic attempt to pander to Pathfinder power gamers. The way they're described it would be more appropriate to give them a +1 to Charisma, and go back to the extra skill or feat rationale of Third Edition*.
      On a related note, allowing elves to roll Perception with advantage is a little more than saying they're not often surprised. That, especially combined with the fact that low-light vision is overpowered for them and underpowered for...
