Message: <blockquote data-quote="Li Shenron" data-source="post: 5982578" data-attributes="member: 1465">For me it is more important that 5e delivers the D&D I want, because otherwise I am most likely not going to play it, at least not on a regular basis.I hope the fanbase unites, but honestly if this happens at the expense of 5e not being something I like, then I'll be happy for the fanbase but I still won't buy and play the game.I am not willing to make a sacrifice that means to play something I don't like, but definitely I am not asking the game to be perfect because it doesn't make sense to me (I am always interested in trying out variations of rules and setting, there is no such thing as "one" way I want the game to be). But I have very little time for playing the game, so if it doesn't clearly appeal to me I'll just dedicate my limited free time to something else and I'll be more happy than forcing myself to play an edition I dislike.I've been a DM for about half of my gaming time, and most of my players have been friends I convinced to play the game in the first place, so hypothetically if 5e appeals to me alone while every other gamer hates it, I can still play it with some non-gamer friends as usual; but if all gamers love it and I hate it, I am not playing (why would I?).But obviously in general I hope a lot of people like it. Since I have little time, it's better for me to join a game as a player in which case I need other non-casual gamers, at least one to be the DM, and I'm generally much more open to compromises as a player than as a DM <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
