There are no issues with 5e and there are plenty of issues with it. It depends on if you want it to be 3.x-4e era, 0e-2e era or 5e. 1. As a 3.x-4e era game it fails and it was never really meant to be that game that has a rule for everything with fiddly customization options that shifted...

let's discuss Dungeon Crawl Classics...

Magic not being split into arcane-divine. It also is the perfect game for a D&D cartoon style game.

That’s not true. Oriental Adventures at least. The Hengeyokai were shapeshifting animal folk. D&D had some in some of the side supplements. They were out there before the Humanoids book. Long before.

I give you… Uncle Scrooge. The greatest adventurer to ever live. I’ll fight people over this one.

I think it made it all the more clear. Always exceptions.

Nah it was forefront to his writing in everything and not just the DMG. He wrote extensively about it in Dragon for example and the OD&D and basic rules emphasized the same play style as well. Players chose to ignore it and we now reap the culture it created from selective reading such as...

have you heard of Old School Essentials Advanced Fantasy? You can have both and it Works. The only thing I change is how many spells wizards can get.

Are you doing it in a room by yourself for your own entertainment or an audience?

3. Thieves are useless.

Noooo? Ya don’t say? See my original comment was meant more as a tongue in cheek comment but everyone has chosen to be all serious and defensive about it and tell me why I’m wrong or “live with it”. And you all wonder why I got defensive.

Feats as core is stupid, goblins are ochre, orcs have pig faces and drow should be cast into the abyss and never heard from again.

That’s how you chose to take it cool, I apologize I was being specific. It is designed to appeal to a common denominator when they could have chunked them out anyway and continued to make level 1 feats a setting specific thing as they have been since Theros. I prefer a simpler play style. I...

Cool story.

It’s a tie between this and OSE for my not D&D aside from DCC. I really weary of that arcane divine split and the simplicity is just lovely. My only issue is it really needs a bestiary. Not a lot of critters and they don’t follow a logic that makes it easy to understand how to create them on...

What a hoot. It was used to generate a reference image. The artwork is all their own.

The comics are there to generate IP not maintain copyright. the Toys, movies etc maintain the trademarks fine

Yes. Sure is. Don’t be a jerk. I’m not being one to you. pandering according to Webster: to provide gratification for others' desires

It impacts more than just level 1. Free pdf Basic D&D is impacted. it isn’t that they’re calling them feats either and I’m kind of perturbed you would project such pettiness onto my comment. It’s that they’re moving away from the toolkit nature of 5e And back into the hard coded RAW style of 3.x...

No, theyre an optional rule. It’s not avoiding a system to not use something that’s OPTIONAL. Making them a core rule and then not using them would be avoiding them. What you’re saying is like saying I have to use every rule in the book or I’m avoiding the systems. No, 5e is designed as a...
