D&D 5th Edition
Having recently played the latest round of play-tests I agree that this is much more like tabletop D&D than 4th Ed. was/is. This feels like it has taken a few good ideas that 4th Ed. contained, stayed nicely with D20, my vote is that its a playable game that feels comfortable to a long time D&D player.
I don't play a number cruncher or a level-up seeker. I generated what is for me the iconic Dwarven cleric of Moradin. Battle healer, a toughish character who can stand beside the party's warrior against the enemy as well as be the walking band-aid. I enjoyed the new spell mechanic, which simply felt like it worked sensibly. It certainly does not inhibit roleplay, and for me did not appear to encourage min-max fan-boy generation.
Will I buy it? well, this is only the play-test; I shall decide when I see the final product, but I see no obstacle at the moment.
