D&D 5E (2014) Ben Riggs talks to Richard Baker. Phandelver in 2018 alone sold 300k copies.

That’s me! :)

Though more often the 3.5 DM (two campaigns on email) then 3.5e player (one rarely played campaign over Zoom). I’m also a player in a 5e 2024 game (played 8-10 times a year over Discord + Roll20). :)

I find 3e & the first few years of PF1 largely 3.5e compatible, but I’ll convert from anything (Harn, even Starfinder once) if I like it enough.
I mean, it seems impossible to.enclunter more 3.5 GMs than players....

Well, you could do a poll, but I suspect EnWorld is majority DM's?

Or at least a higher DM percentage than the 20% that's supposedly bog standard (1 GM + 4 players).

Because ENworld requires a higher degree of interest in D&D than is necessarily the case among players.

What I mean is that a TTRPG cannot, by definition, require more GMs than players. At the very best, it is 1:1 and that is exceedingly rare.
 





4E was and is the the best WO$C product and Bakers brilliant work contrasts to the garbage Wizards produces now.

I respectfully disagree with you. 4E was the only edition that was so bad I did not enjoy playing it at all. What WOTC is producing now is not perfect, but it is light years better than 4E IMO.

I agree with you. Neither respectfully nor disrespectfully. :)
 

At least 4E was wel designed and there's a lot to mine from it.
Biggest problem its good for pushing minis around a battlemat that takes a while. The while part gets worse as you level up.

If you like that great if you don't its basically a deal breaker.

Kinda like domains in OSR. D&D the accounting. Its an acquired taste.
