[QUOTE="doctorbadwolf, post: 7032366, member: 6704184"] Man, when did you get so snarky? lol Seriously, though, I think he has valid points. And certainly there is room to update some aspects of 5e. I mean, come on. Are you seriously arguing that "finding things in the books is hard" isn't a valid concern because...spells are the main thing you'd need to look up? Seriously? You don't think people need to look up...rules for things? And how does confusingly ambiguous stealth rules empower DMs? People are commonly confused about their intent, and how they work RAW. That empowers no one. As for Inspiration, I like "RP-carrot" mechanics fun. Inspiration specifically is a fairly dull mechanic that is too easily forgotten. I've replaced it with Action Points, that can be replenished by the DM or another player when you earn it in various ways, and players actually remember it now. Before, we had to use physical counters ala Old School Hack in a bowl on the table, or we just wouldn't remember that Inspiration exists. [/QUOTE]
