And magic items. Which with this system would eliminate their dependence. A +1 sword is just a nice find rather than a dependent bonus.

Flat math , so no BAB of any kind just STR mod and ... maybe weapon bonus to hit like they had in 4th? Skills would be just your attribute , bonuses from race, theme , and background . But leveling up doesn't add anything more to the dice roll , just gives you more stuff to do with that skill...

Depends on how many orcs make up an encounter

I have a bit more knowledge than most. I have liked what i have seen , and hope they have fixed the rough patches while keeping the good.

Monte stated that he was leaving due to "differences of opinion with the company". A lot of people are taking this to mean that he had differences with the design of 5e. Only Monte and WotC know this for sure. The other possibility is that Monte left for other reasons (OGL, rate of pay...

You making some big assumption leaps without any knowledge. Why would WotC talk about making 5e feel like other editions.

I agree with the OT. After seeing play test 1.0 I believe the team is on to something really good .

Yeah good move by Mearls to do some damage control. I bet the May 24th date wasn't meant to be announced just yet...but given the circumstances

Werewolf as a background? ....that is way cool

From how it looks there are no levels for monsters. They are looking at making a basic Orc a challenge for adventurers for longer. There may be some kind of module later on that allows you to tinker with monsters.

Given I have seen people debate on forums which dice pools for FATE engine games to use when in actuality it made VERY little real world difference. The Op guys gotta Op.

While valid, it also runs into a problem that we saw in past editions. If all combats are difficult do they become complex? Do we face analysis paralysis as a wrong move could end up being bad? Ultimately do combats begin to drag and we get caught up in the grind again? I also can see your...

I am on my tablet so I can't grant xp. But as far as TotM stuff goes I would rather see some kind of zone system as opposed to laying it out in terms of feet and meters .
