I now realize that "heroic" can mean different things to different people, so I think I should clarify: when I say "heroes" I don't necessarily mean "the good guys." I mean "central protagonists, united in a common purpose against a common threat." Like the Fellowship of the Ring, or the Rebel Alliance, or Starfleet.What in 5e demands black and white heroes and villains from your perspective, if I may ask?
But for other types of games--where one player at the table is secretly the BBEG, and two other guys at the table have to die or be driven to madness before the last man standing "wins"--I'm not sure 5E has the right toolset to handle it. The 5E character classes are designed to be complimentary, not opposed. The DCs and CRs all assume the players will be working together, not against each other. I think it would be too much trouble to be worth my time.
