Will 6e fix it finally?
6e, when it comes out, will probably be 4e2 just not as drastic in scope. Or it will be 5.5 for some reason by 2020
why are you so obsessed with D&D getting better? why so invested with the brand just because it's the origin of the hobby? let it continue on its path and enjoy the parts of the hobby you like.
D&D was already better, then whiners happened and they turned it back to worse. Leave it to the masses to decide and go play somethig else.
>D&D
Ugh.
D&D got better, but everybody hated 4e. Turns out D&D fans hate good game design, even when it's kinda half arsed in many respects.
Nope, d&d has become mainstream and thus must remain the same.
Switch to something like GURPS
Nope 4e wasn't good.
It was good in comparison to the rest of d&d but other games still blow it out of the water.
Name one which is even slightly comparable in terms of genre and mechanical style. Seriously, if you know anything that does heroic fantasy storytelling with satisfying tactical combat, tell me, because as far as I can tell 4e is pretty much the best at what it does, despite its significant flaws.
And no, Strike! does not fucking count.
Risus is better for rules lite and gurps dungeon fantasy is amazing for rules heavy.
Or just generic gurps if you are willing to let classes die.
