[QUOTE="Coroc, post: 7795738, member: 6895991"] Well if you think those assumptions reappearing then what about (pun intended) [LIST] [*]Warforged, Dragonborn, Drow and Tiefling have to be shoehorned into every commercial D&D campaign ever to get official material again. (If my DM does not let me play one he is a jerk) [*]Attribute malus are so eighties, (where is my safespace) [*]Why can't I play my halfvampire teenage mutant ninja Turtle in your Darksun/Dragonlance campaign? [*]You are not a creative DM if you cannot integrate that one into your game. [*]Every item in the standard players handbook item list especially weapos and armor have to be available at their given prices. It is especially unfair if that is not the case and my char does not get his predefined starting equipment but some coins, amount based on some rolled dice instead. (This bullet actually occurred to me as DM) [/LIST] end irony TBH Everybody has his preferences, some like the RP aspect, some the mystery and riddle solving aspect, and to some it is the combat part of the game - the famous three pillars. And to cater all three, especially for the combat fans, you got to have a somewhat balanced power distribution, so no one feels like the fifth wheel on a carriage. It is not everybody's idea of contributing in their character just cheering for his mates, because a single lucky hit of a kobold takes them out for sure. So I do understand people, who insist on some kind of "fairness in preconditions" and see a bit of competition from the sporty side within the game. [/QUOTE]
