I couldn't get my wife's digital rebel to work (rrrr) so I used her old digital camera on a tripod... Yeah, I have a long way to go to improve the way my videos to look in 2012... haha. The sound is a little weird as well, sorry about that. I'm also not centered in the frame. Man, I need to work on this. :)

after the 1st playtest i think i'll stick with 4E

@RonnieDobbz1978 I'm guessing things will change once the feedback is sent in from the playtests. I have a sneaking suspicion that I will like what 5th Edition has to offer. I know you can't extrapolate what you didn't like.

[RonnieDobbz1978]

@Samwise7RPG i am not sure. if the new edition was going to be based on player feedback then why did we all have to sign NDAs? It seemed like most of it was already set up. I'll buy the new PHB and DMG, but i'm a D&D fanboy.

@RonnieDobbz1978 It may well already be set up for the most part, but like I said, I'm trying to be positive about it. I'll see what I think when it comes out. It may very well be that I won't like it, but I will reserve my judgement till it is all said and done. I had to sign an NDA for the Novus RPG playtest (that is almost over) and that game has gone through some substantial changes. I even got some very big additions put into the game because I was persistent. :)

Thanks for being open-minded and non-judgmental to others!

[Samwise7RPG]

@yinchanvo You are most welcome. :) hehe. Thanks for watching.

[RonnieDobbz1978]

@Samwise7RPG I hear you, but for me 4E aint broken and doesn't need to be fixed IMHO. After the DDXP playtest, I would say the game so far was very well received, with 80% favorable thoughts, I must admit I am not a big fan of play testing to begin with.

@Samwise7RPG Yep, thats pretty much how I do it.I like to draw so my "notes" are usually some scetches and thats about it.
