Worked for me. Chrome.

My perception of 4e, is that the tactical guts are better served in a different game, like draw steel. Right or wrong I don't know.

Thats the trick, getting it done in 1 rule set/outline. I think it could totally be done though. Ignoring 4e of course. (Sorry, not sorry! :LOL:)

Not at all that I know of?

I'm OK with no more hard breaks, but I think 5.5 just missed on quite a bit and didnt really FIX anything while it made some things worse. There is a way I think, to really unify things within a single rule set, that 5.5 just didnt do, and very much keep the soul of what makes D&D, D&D.

lol if you believe this, you are already on the guys ignore list unless like I you threw him on yourself.

Yeah its not 'if' it could be done. Wizards obviously could, most of us could. WILL they however, when pretty much since the first adventure was published you were expected to go down the path of good guy only. As to the 4e changes, I dont know them, but most of the 4e changes didnt really work...

I mean I can totally get the appeal. When I got on my 'every other year at best' holiday. I'm not there to run the show. I dont plan activity, I dont guide things. I completely reverse the dynamic, and I'm just there. The 'holiday' is from having to be the adult. So I can get it, but man what a...

Probably. The people who need that kind of thing essentially need to be saved from themselves, and solitary + lockdown is about as good as its going to get in that regard. Pretty sad.

Everyone dies. If you cannot go out with your own self respect, go out with your morality intact, you still die. A setting that doesnt reward you for being good explicitly, but YOU know you are good and you do it anyway? Sounds like some great roleplay potential instead of yet another power...

Yeah, big yikes. Please put me in jail as an escape from my life.

Not sure of if thats a sad react or funny react, but it reminds of a quote I saw. "Our nervous system did not evolve to deal with modern life, and it wants out."

Feat Chains = Talent Trees? Just wondering how you envision it. (I know what Talent Trees are just to be clear.) Agreed, loot needs a total change, its currently pointless. Agreed. Yes....ish? I like how Daggerheart does it for sure and would absolutely leverage something like that.

What would you wholesale cut or replace? When I look at an iterative edition, I'm not looking to replace the whole thing, otherwise I can just play a different game.

The general flexibility of casters needs to go down, not the other way. This is part of why mastery is an issue, its bloated out the game. I think the core D&D experience is too tied to combat, any class that just sucks, and 5e had a few, for combat games is dismissed too quick. Anyway, just...

Its funny though, because while this is true, for me the tension between updating something I think is great (SD/DH) vs just playing it because its great, leads to a dissatisfaction. On the other hand, the 6e thread @Reynard started has me opening up my old files. "Why yes, I do think D&D could...

I'd also do something about Tiers, and Campaign Frames. Now the wheels are turning...

And I could run any OSR adventure with Shadowdark. Hell, I could run any 2014 5e adventure with Shadowdark. lol and you literally cut the rest of that sentence to fail to make a point.

AI was a mistake lol

The current system, that would be 5.5, doesnt support the back catalog, any more than I can take 'any' OSR adventure, and run it with Shadowdark, after I make my own adjustments. Nature and Nurture? What does that even mean structurally? There is no Culture object in the 5e or 5.5 books...
