    That's not a function of situations versus plots versus freeform.

    Daggerheart "Description on Demand" a GM DON'T

    I don't think these things are at odds. At least, for me they aren't. I am a proponent of "situations not plots" and I don't think player authored elements impinge on.that in any way.

    D&D General GMing and "Player Skill"

    Honestly, your patronizing tone is tiresome. You seem to think you are the only one who knows how the game is meant to be played, and all things would be perfect if only those tiresome players would do as they're told.

    D&D 5E (2024) Rate D&D 2024

    I don't think so. Many folks have convinced themselves that people that like 2014 but don't like 2024 are rare and just embittered or something. The reality is that there are substantive changes that make the game worse (for some people). We can discuss those things, but not if people just...

    D&D 5E (2024) Rate D&D 2024

    I don't mean to be salty, but have neither of you never looked at a metacritic score and had that impact your decision? If folks want to explain why they rated it a 7, fine. Great, even. But the idea that you don't know what a numerical rating is makes me suspect of your motives here.

    Just like certain kinds of magic (mind reading, teleport, etc) the key is to.embrace those things and make them matter. Read Gibson for ways to do this.

    Daggerheart "Description on Demand" a GM DON'T

    One thing that is important, I think,is that if you ARE going to ask players to define setting elements, you should respect and incorporate those definitions. Again, coming more from an engagement perspective than immersion one,if you want your players engaged in those moments, prove to them...

    I said "since 1E." As in, 1E was the last time it was simpler. My bad for being unclear.

    A Discord seems like a great way to make sure your fanbase is insular and ever shrinking.

    TTRPG Genres You Just Can't Get Into -and- Tell Me Why I'm Wrong About X Genre I Don't Like

    In 2E you had to generate ability scores and compare them to requirements before picking a race or class. Then you had to choose a kit and NWPs and WPs. Of course casters had to pick spells. Some classes had to distribute skill points. I don't think 5E chargen is any more complex than 2E.
