As soon as I was notified by email that the playtest packet was ready to download I headed over to the Wizards site to do so. It seems that so many people were doing the same thing so I had issues with access. I tried a few times and then decided to download the stuff later in the day after the initial rush.
After finally downloading and browsing through the playtest documents I can say one thing for sure - I am interested! I believed that I would be disappointed after 4E but I can honestly say that I like the impression I got when I browsed through the documents. I did not do a line by line read through of the material but I think it could serve as a steady base that will obviously get houseruled by groups looking for a certain style of play. If it continues in this manner, then I will definitely pick up a PHB on release.
Now I am off for a thorough read through...
