I know there's a good pun/joke about phoenixes rising again but I'm too tired to think of it D:

Yet no one wants to listen to me when I say I want to purge people from D&D?

So we need negative levels?? Commoners can be level -5!

Oh wait, I forgot. 6E should tell people to join Enworld! Arn't we the greatest online Dungeons and Dragons community to ever exist or what???

It's not about how many powers a hero has; it's about how much heart they have!!!

Edit: also thought another character soloing a dragon

If we're just wishing for what we want; then let me tell you what I want... That every person who plays 6E will control their own destiny. An edition of the truly free! An edition of declaring action, not spewing words; ruled by judgement, not committee! Where the rules change to suit the...

Instead of thinking about rules, I want to think about the training process of the developers. For example, I think the developers should participate in UFC style matches to better understand how unarmed combat works. Or go spend a week camping and hiking. Or maybe go forge their own swords???

Isn't the most important thing for playing 1E a DM who already has been playing it for decades already???

I want 6E to purposefully push out and purge the weak from D&D so that the strong won't be held back by trying accommodate the weak. I also want WOTC to consult heavily with the members of Enworld; as who are better then us to determine the direction of D&D?? And instead of a DMG, WOTC could...

Ravnica is all about Guilds, so my central questions are... Which players will be from which guilds? Will they all be from the same guild or all different?? Which Guilds do you understand and/or can portray? How well can you manage fractional conflict? One group like something but another...

But exploration and social stuff shouldn't require rule systems! The DM and players are suppose to improv and negotiate their way through it! And having class abilities for it will just encourage people to look at their character sheets to solve problems. They're suppose to use their...

That happens all the time for me in the Maid RPG! D&D, not so much.

Your character can fight a tank but can they track down Carmen Sandeigo? And yes, I literally did throw a "where in the world is Carmen Sandeigo?" type adventure at my M&M group.

That reminds me, the Invincible TTRPG is having a Kickstarter; eventually... https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1192053011/invincible-the-roleplaying-game

Oh, we're looking for common pitfalls, eh?? I find expecting your players to read the rules to be a common mistake among designers. How do you design a TTRPG that doesn't require players to read???

Messin' around on your home table is one thing; selling it to the world is another. Heartbreaker is a term for a reason.

Maybe forcing the player to search for and use weird dice IS one of the points of the game?? https://goodman-games.com/dungeon-crawl-classics-rpg/

I just think about it for a second and allow it if it makes sense in the fiction. And maybe make them roll a D20 because everything is a D20 check.
