Curiously, here I am at this exact moment, trying to learn Shadowrun Sixth World (6e, the latest edition). It's... Confusing, to say the least.

Probably not. I'm definitely not buying the PHB right away. I will wait, at least, until I see the new stuff and what's different. I would be more inclined to embark on a proper new edition than to incorporate all these other things.

There's nothing wrong with the concept; maybe it's not the right game for you guys, which is fair... Trying to use a grid for 48 PCs was a big mistake, though.

I played it from 2004 to 2017 (I was playing it alongside with for a few years). I enjoyed it; I liked the more complex combat and the abundance of material... But I really disliked the feat system, the enormous number of spells, and, most of all, I hated prestige classes.

Why are you playing a class-based system if you don't want to think about classes? It makes no sense.

It sure is. There are people who somehow think that 5e is great for everything, people who think 5e is the best D&D edition, people who think there are better D&D editions, but, mostly, there are people who know no other thing. And they are a perfect match with the first group - specially the...

I've always enjoyed 5e, but I'm tired of its limitations and the corporate need to transform it into a "TTRPG live service". The "all we need is 5e" movement also annoys me, as if 5e was the "ultimate" rendition of D&D or, worse, the ultimate TTRPG. 5e is D&D, and that system is not the best...

No, not really. Maybe this is a very American thing to do, like many TV shows incorporate seasonal themes on them? I don't know. Incorporating Carnaval in my games doesn't make much sense to my Brazilian mind, for example. Or the World Cup every four years, all characters wearing yellow...:LOL:

For me, they are. It's been at least eight years since I gave up on them (Winter Soldier was the last I can remember I went to the theater to watch). I watched a few after that: Deadpool, Logan, Wonder Woman, and Black Panther, if I recall correctly, but it was just out of curiosity. I can't...

I love the game, 179h so far... But I didn't play the others. I don't think it's fair for me to vote.

That's not our case. It's a homebrew campaign that started pretty cool four years ago and was cool for a long time, but now it's just dragging. We have an end in sight, but it will take a little longer still.

Extremely boring never-ending 5e campaign. (I suppose "never-ending" qualifies as 1 word, right?)

It will only get worse when they release their VTT...

In the early days of 5e, Mike Mearls said they figured out that the large number of books published in previous editions was not something profitable and that they would do it differently this time. It has nothing to do with the alleged incapacity of printers to print their books.

GURPS uses a "bucketful of dice"? Where? Compared to what? It will sometimes use a handful of dice for damage, and that's all. Poor GURPS - everything people want to criticize, they will put GURPS on the list. Also, "Adding sums quickly is easier for experienced players who are practiced in...
