I'm strongly in the "optional rules in VERY CLEAR sidebars" or preferably, if there are enough of them "in their own book".
That might be closer than we think!It's the 21st century. I want the optional rules at my fingertips (and the fingertips of everyone in the group). I want to check boxes and slide dials to tune the game to the everyone's taste for whatever campaign we're planning, and then I want the e-PHB/DMG to generate a customized one-volume rule book for me and my friends.
Oh, I really do need to be careful what I wish for."ChatGPT, create a tabletop roleplaying game that uses the following 5th Edition D&D rules options and variants: spell points, feats, multiclassing, small-sized dwarves, intelligence-based initiative, no alignment, spell mishaps, damage reduction for armor..."
I was under the impression that almost no one read the DMG from cover to cover.But in 2023, it's a bit pointless. Every gamer reads every book from cover to cover.
