D&D 4th Edition Details Released

Wired is reporting that some juicy details of Wizards of the Coast's new 4th edition for Dungeons and Dragons are being leaked on to the web from the D&D Experience in Arlington, VA this week. "Wizards of the Coast, the current custodians of the D&D universe, have been talking about the upcoming fourth edition of the game for months, but they've been fairly cagey about hard details, preferring to tell us more about how elves love footraces than how much damage a fireball does. They're running actual 4e games at D&D Experience, though, and thanks to people with scanners, you can too!"

What are the effects on players?

[BadAnalogyGuy]

The jump from a pure fantasy imagination game to the bean counter fantasy world of D&D3 was enough to put a damper on gameplay. But not enough attention was paid to the actual effects upon the players themselves.

Will this new version increase or decrease the loserosity of its players? Will players gain valuable wedgiesma points in the transition?

Without Wizards of the Coast telling us these things, we can only assume that the Satanic rituals have not been purged and we will see more kids led down the road to social ostracisterity.

seriously there is a reason sterotypes exist - because most of the time they are true.

walk past a D&D shop and you'll see i'm right.
