The base game seems to be very more of an old school feel, with possible "expansions" to come that add in newer ideas and feels. For instance, there is supposedly a rule book in the works that will add more of a 4E grid combat feel to the game, more miniatures combat.

Time will tell.ZenI ran through the Candlekeep Next adventure - our DM was light on rules/mechanics and heavy on roleplaying... Normally, this would be awesome, but I was trying to iron out some of the new mechanics! I learned that Next/5th "hustle" is like the 4th double move... and that's about it. Well, I got free dice at least. They should have had an adventure and DMs that could really introduce the mechanics en masse. Oh well, another WotC trip up.~throwi
