PS - I did start reading your post, but once you claimed it was a fault of my visualization twice, coupled with its length. I stopped reading.

While I tend to agree, that is not the case in a lot of fiction with magic.

Yes, I was honest. You said what I observed was not what I observed

What I was responding to (I think, don't actually remember as to much has happened between then and now) was that people wanted the rules to suck (and I personally don't like that term as the rules did work for some people so the didn't suck they just didn't work for me). Also, the attitude I...

I apologize your response was too long for me to go through. The fact that you deny my experience is enough for me not to want to engage any further with your comments.

Both 4e and 5e added lots of movement for solo monsters. I find your information quite outdated on this. No it can’t. The troll was supposed to be a lumbering giant but acted like a chicken with its head cut off tat had also been hasted. I find the idea of 1 turn per PC absolutely immersion...

I think you and @Micah Sweet should talk!

That is not what I said. So it seems we’re stacking misunderstanding on misunderstanding. It happens. I’m getting in a plane so will need to drop shortly.

IDK, I have heard you say that repeatedly, but that it not the sense I have gotten from the people you corresponded with. It seems to me that you tend be the more aggressive and confrontational. But I can’t claim to have followed you posting or have a full picture of the conversations you have...

I’m not saying you should if the spirit of change is not your thing. Also, what is bad for you isn’t bad for everyone. If you don’t like it, don’t want to change it, then don’t buy it. I can imagine anyone is arguing you should buy something you don’t like. Not even sure why you brought that up.

My I don’t understand the context of what you quoted from the poster, but it does seem to disagree with the snips you posted.

I just think it is human nature. We are flawed creatures.

I mean that is how the game started so a lot of us old-timers have that attitude.

Odyssey is a one man design team and is looking to be a really interesting entry into the 5e market. Though I agree, if your not a professional designer making a RPG from the ground up is a tall task

That is not fair, CTHD goes far outside what anyone can do (that is why they use wires). So if you want to play zero to hero, and some people do, you need to start right at or just above 0 don’t you. However, I would also make magic extremely limited at this levels too. Maybe start as rituals...

IDK, I seem to remember complain about the design survey pretty early on, but I agree the real route is: it is not designed how I want

Sure, it is a personal thing, which I think immersion typically is. Some people don’t even care about it and treat D&D just a game, not a role playing game. There are all types.

Absolutely - go for it!

You should talk to my DM, he thrash us on the regular and claims he is pulling his punches!

Yes, that is exactly it. Everyone is a “demigod” and therefore magical.
