Re: [RPG]: Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition Player's Handbook, reviewed by James Gillen

A pretty good review so far A few too many comparisons to MMORPGs, but at least they weren't ranty comparisons. A good structure to the review as a whole, although I wish the review stood alone and had a conclusion section.

One nitpick where you state:
Quote:
Warlock doesn't merely resemble the World of Warcraft "lock", it is such an obvious steal that Blizzard could easily sue Wizards
Do you realize Warlocks existed in D&D before WoW? Or, I guess, about the same time (Complete Arcane came out Nov 2004, same month as WoW). In fact that old Warlock class greatly inspired the construction of the 4E framework.

I look forward to reading the rest!
