[QUOTE="Ruin Explorer, post: 9121986, member: 18"] Hahahahaha right back at you and at every single person who makes any claim to know anything how D&D is played. You're just shooting yourself in the foot with this sort of utter shenanigans. I've got huge real-world experience, and what I'm seeing online backs up that, by and large, by real-world experiences lines up pretty well with how people under 40 play the game, for the most part. No, it's like saying "I've played and watched American football, so your claim that it's perfectly normal for teams to only try and score field goals and do [I]literally nothing else[/I] but try to score field goals" is ludicrous gibberish. That's the analogy here. A nonsensical and ridiculous claim is being made. If 1% of D&D groups just immediately give up on every problem and are willing to wait up to 24 hours until the Wizard has the right spell for it prepared, I would be astonished. But we both know that's nonsense. Also arena football seems to be staggeringly unpopular to the point where it got discontinued so it's kind of funny to try and use that example lol. Plus you seem to be bad faith arguing - you're arguing a position you don't actually believe, in which case, there's literally no point arguing with you, because you have no honest belief involved. You can call me names like "hubristic", and sure, whatever man, but either say "I believe loads of D&D groups just immediately give up and wait for Daddy Wizard to solve their problems!" or admit you don't believe that so we can move on. Also lol: [ATTACH type="full" alt="hubris.png"]294431[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
