Why wasn't it modeled on 4e?

Maybe it's only because I did only play it in short bursts, but I remember 4e fondly. Much more fondly than 3.5.

Then stop being an edition warring faggot and ignore the edition war threads.

These things always try to be 4e vs 5e and end 4e versus 3.pf and people talking about how 5e isn't bad - or occasionally 2e vs 5e.

Until you go back in time and fix the tiefling and dwarf designs, that meme will never die.

>4e was a massive team and in-house programming. Expensive as hell.
Is that why only one person was working on the online tools?

>online tools at all

What did it really take from 4e?

The adventuring day, ribbons, three pillars.

4e is primarily presented better and has a better MM for the DM.

When playing 3.5 you don't have an SRD open or good old D&D tools for fast searching?
We do.

None of those are really things they took from 4e.

Heck, they even fucked up the thing they DID try to take from 4e. Short Rests not being 5 mins any more.
