    D&D 5E (2014) Is Point Buy Balanced?

    I agree with everyone. Have the kind of fun you like. Me not liking your fun doesn’t invalidate it. My fun is not seeing any value in balance. Someone else’s fun is the quest for balance. And someone else’s fun is discussing/arguing about it all. Play what you like the way you like.

    D&D 5E (2014) Is Point Buy Balanced?

    The only thing any of us have to ask is….are we having fun? Anything else is just people debating which version of fun is the right version.

    D&D 5E (2014) Is Point Buy Balanced?

    Sorry friend. I roll a PC and I make the most of it. I just don't see the value in "balanced". If every PC is GREAT then none of them are. 🤷‍♂️ I believe the kids call this diversity. I'm all for the optimizers optimizing. I'm all for the mathletes mathelizing. I'm sure in the long run...

    D&D 5E (2014) Is Point Buy Balanced?

    I don't define balance at all. If you can define it one way, and i can define it another way, and Harry over there can also define it their way...does it really mean anything at all? Its nuanced and as such it doesn't mean what everyone thinks it means. Just one mans view.

    Touche' If we woke up tomorrow and "balance" was achieved.....i think a lot of people would then be upset that everything was too much the same.

    D&D 5E (2014) Is Point Buy Balanced?

    Balance is a myth. There i said it!!! What % of people just make up their stats so they get what they want? And is what they want today for character X the same as what they might want tomorrow for character Y? This all sounds more poignant in my head. I'm going to go eat lunch now.

    Painting minis?

    The journey of a 1000 miles etc. Buy some minis...any minis. Buy some paint...any paint. Critique your outcome but don't compare it to people who have been painting for decades. Than seek out techniques that will help you get better results. As in all things you get what you pay for so get...

    D&D General A Rant: DMing is not hard.

    To declare that something is "hard" is just another vague term used to create division. Is DMing hard for you? Ask for help or look for tools that will make it "easier". Is DMing easy for you? Offer to help others. There is no real reason to argue over what is or isn't hard. The discussion...

    D&D General A Rant: DMing is not hard.

    The trick to being a good GM in any system is not letting your players know there are better ones than you. ;)

    D&D General A Rant: DMing is not hard.

    What if you only play D&D....but you own and read tons of not-D&D because in almost 40 years of gaming.....no one i've ever gamed with ever wanted to leave D&D? My research shows that most people only ever want to play D&D because everything else is just imitation D&D any way.* *this is a...

    I have always wanted to learn how to play canasta. My uncle never cursed like he did when playing that game. :cool:

    D&D General A Rant: DMing is not hard.

    That sounds hard. Nothing is hard unless it is. Nothing is easy unless it is. What someone think is easy or hard is only relevant to themselves.

    I wonder if anyone can see the irony in this statement?
