[QUOTE="RenleyRenfield, post: 9630420, member: 7044197"] You are right. I am overstating for sure. I am mostly responding to the sheer amount, every day at least 10 videos and a few blog posts of someone having issues with roleplay that clearly stem from obvious bad mechanics that for some reason - when they ask for a fix, and some game system like pbta offers it - they go 'naw, ill go back to the problem system instead'... :P I want gaming to be fun, to be all the things we could never do in videogames, to be our fav shows and movies. And it seems odd that people still look to a 50 year old rules set that gets tons of complaints... heck, how many decades went by before DnD became a dice pool system and added a very common roll now of 'Advantage'. We all knew the single D20 roll was painful and unfun.. and the Advantage rule helped a lot! So why can't there be more new fun rules? I'm not trying to be mean, I am only saying "we have come a long way, there [I]are[/I] things that make it easier or more fun for all" :D [/QUOTE]
