Well, he is replacing it with a totally different system: giving monsters levels not CR. That is really something quite different and has nothing to do with the accuracy of the CR calculator and more to do with encounter design. Which are separate things in 5e

You also need six people willing to be filmed. I think most of us are too shy for that. But I have never asked.

Ok - I can see that now. Totally took it the wrong way!

I don’t think that is true at all, not by any definition of superhero I’ve seen.

Issue it’s possibly around the idea that no one has standard definition about what a superhero is. Some people would call 5E players superheroes and others would say it is not. So superhero is more talking about your biases than a statement of fact

Of course they’re also some who enjoyed both!

Is there a reason you added this line? Didn’t seem anyone was talking along this line of thought.

Fine is. It good or fun though.

I don’t know that any of us have the equipment to record a session. Never really thought much about it. Unfortunately I moved recently and am not likely to game with that group again. We tried online during covid snd it just didn’t click or us. The big factor being that getting together in...

Correct. It was crazy when we first tried. We had a lot of turns that were often wasted (to some extent). However, it was such a hectic, and exhilarating frenzy we kept with it. It really added a level excitement to RPG combat that I had never experienced before. When you are crunched for time...

Yep, we don't have the time for that! I'm a player, so I am not sure if the DM is doing things behind the scenes. I would say our 5-10 minute combats last 2-3 rounds. We get 2-3 combats in a session. Sometimes less, sometimes more. For this discussion I was specifically talking about combat...

OK, I’ve answered this question a few times already. Here are the other responses. If this is an answer your question let me know.

I don’t have a video, that is not something we have ever thought of doing (we are in person only) but I can answer your questions: 4-5 players Lvl 15 Complexity: varies. A five minute encounter is not gonna be very complex. Smash and grab/smash and run that kind of stuff. Complex encounter might...

We play very fast. In 4e we started using a 30 second timer. The timer went off your turn ended where it was. It’s pretty internalized to our group now. And we just move really fast. If It takes 30 seconds for us to adjudicate turn now that’s going on longer than it should. When I say a turn, I...

Well, it is a bit dependent on how much you’re bleeding.

Tasha’s is still valid of course

I am liking the modest silver redesign. Always was one of my favorites.

I would prefer an abbreviated approach that gets to the heart of the spells. Not the full write up. Well, your approach is helpful, it would take up a lot of space that was already in another book you should have. Do you have to look two places anyway, might as well leave the spells spell book.

I prefer a combination. A list of spells like they have now and then one or two key spells, that they’re basing the CR on, detailed in the block.

In beyond, but not in my book!
