I know this is a little bit of threadnecromancy but this is interesting - I’ve always heard that adding breadcrumbs to burgers was to act as a binder, yet whenever I did it, I really didn’t see a difference as far as that went. This explanation suddenly makes a lot more sense to me. Maybe it’s...

🙄

If that’s the scale, 1. I don’t know every rule in 5e by heart but that also wouldn’t stop me from modifying it.

*%^# that guy.

Dude literally just dodged, ducked, dipped, dived and dodged ownership of a single thing that he said in that thread, but he’ll incorporate feedback. Feh.

Yes, he can, in fact, control how others use his words by being circumspect about the words he uses and the forums he chooses to use them in. He was the lead designer for a brand name product within a major company and I don’t believe for one second that he doesn’t understand that impact. He has...

Yes, exactly this. I have not wanted to link any of that crap here but what he said has ramifications. I’ve seen some of the articles and videos since his post. He can’t just pretend that his words don’t have impact.

I do not agree with your position or standards and it’s fine with me to disengage.

I find it disturbing that a well known designer in the TTRPG community would use a bunch of culture war dogwhistles to garner support for his position, and I would imagine, his yet to be released game.

I also said general creep as an option. Thought you weren’t engaging a side?

My comment was about Mike Mearls, which was what the comment you linked to was about.

🤷‍♂️

Why do you think I’m shooting the messenger?

Glad you’re unphased.

Did you ask Mike Mearls that?

Still don’t know what participation trophies have to do with TTRPGs to begin with.

Kinda similar note: we were playing Mothership last week, and my PC got killed right at the start of a combat. I had my new PC rolled up in a couple of minutes and the GM had my new character into the encounter before it was even over. What’s even better: both characters were very loose...

Oh I totally get that. For me though, 5e is if I want a more heroic, story based game. Shadowdark is the more site-based, dungeon crawling game, with a focus on resources, traps and puzzles. I just look at the two games as different kinds of tools.
