[QUOTE="Mepher, post: 6772697, member: 61277"] My group switched to 5E this summer and they played Lost Mine. I myself didn't make the plunge until this fall when I took back the reigns of DMing full time. The group wanted to play 5E so I decided to take the plunge. I wish I had done a little reading before hand because I decided to start with Horde of the Dragon Queen. My time is limited right now so I wanted a long term adventure path that I could run each week with minimal preparation....this is NOT that. I think I spend more time shoring up this adventure to make it coherent than if I just wrote my own adventure. Add to the fact that (and I know I will be the minority here) but I am just not a fan of the 5E system. It feels like D&D rewritten for the video game crowd where every player must have 10 options to do every turn. My players all like it so at the very least I will finish HOTDQ, but after that who knows. Maybe I will move onto Rise or maybe I will just go back to running my own sandbox world. [/QUOTE]
