I agree. We're doing Zeitgeist right now and I think it's handling all these points really well. When the NPCs are competent and good, it relieves us, but they never quite do anything heroic, so it's a well tread line. I did notice that our entire group immediately suspects everyone to be butts...

Not to get too deep into mechanics: I want to second surges as cinematic - It's like why I like hero or action points too.  I'm not really for the try-as-hard-as-possible to kill your players mindset as a thing DMs should be doing (you know, all the time).  So, I like stuff that can save us in...

Whether or not Official is a product's tag or not doesn't carry much weight with me. I don't intrinsically have any faith that Official products are better (or worse) than Unofficial ones. I've seen fan based products be incredible and "real" products be awful, so I think I just try to do my...

I'll be super honest - when you're having an adventure, it's 'easiest' to be Neutral Good, I think. You're an adventurer. You're putting your life on the line here. Sometimes you sigh to yourself and you do something less than lawful or even moral because things need to get done around here...

Hey, that's a good idea too. I'll also bring up this point as well!

Yeah, that's the sort of stuff I was looking for. I don't want to start making it epic-complicated since he's new (but not so new to gaming that he can't handle a couple extra 'complications'). I especially like the burst five idea, it feels like it fits right in, and I'll talk all these ideas...

One of my PCs has his heart set on making his character blind from the outset. He's a human raised by Dragonborn, and he has an elaborate backstory that the PC's really excited about. I've told him that we could just run combat as if he could see, and that he could treat it more as a...
