[QUOTE="pming, post: 7489772, member: 45197"] Hiya! Ah, a man after my own heart. ;) Seriously, I'm not hatin' on 5e. I think 5e is the best version of D&D to come along since 1e. Love DM'ing (and now playing!...got to play THREE whole sessions as Wargrim Battlebrew, Dwarven Battlebrewer of Ulaa!). It's just that I don't like the way the MC works. Doesn't feel right to me. My main "argument" is that a MC character in 5e never feels like a MC character to me. Why? I guess the "problem" I have with it is a DM can't say "Ok, Tracy, here's your characters XP. You get 1200 even. Divide them between your Fighter and Thief classes". ...because there is not difference between the characters classes and their XP's gained. That amalgamation of XP equaling a "total number of levels" simply does not feel..."right"...to me. Probably because I'm old. And crotchety. And am in need of my nap. Or maybe it's because I just don't like the way 5e MC "feels". Or, most likely, all of the above. ;) ^_^ Paul L. Ming [/QUOTE]
