- D&D 4.0 is fun
As someone who was very skeptical about the 4th edition I can say confidently that it is better than 3.5 edition.It turns out, it is incredibly fun to play and the way everything functions is actually very fluid.For one, I can make a character in roughly 10 minutes(if I don't worry about creating a backstory).One thing that is the cause of this drastic reduction in time over the other systems is that they combined many different skills into a broader category.Also one huge bonus for me is ...

Rating: - Awesome.
Overall better than 3.5. It plays like a different game because you aren't spending as much time on mundane tasks.

This isn't D&D, it's a WOW Miniatures Offline Card Game.
