It’s ultimately such an unhelpful term, really. It presupposes that no one attempted to play epic campaigns before the advent of DL, and from my experience, that’s pretty much false. It wouldn’t be so bad if it was simply talking about the modules published themselves, but “old school” always gets applied as if different playstyles themselves didn’t exist and there’s always that tone of superiority in the phrase itself.If D&D was always a game where individual tables applied their own house rules to the game, then there were always tables that tweaked the rules to ensure that no one was dying right from the get go, and increasing the survivablity of characters for purposes of having an epic campaign.</blockquote>
