[QUOTE="toucanbuzz, post: 8893193, member: 19270"] Others have said it, but I also don't have to buy WOTC product to DM D&D games. [LIST=1] [*]I have my 5E books and the LevelUp books. I've got all the rules I'll ever need. If I find rules that stink, I'll homebrew them, no WOTC needed. [*]My group doesn't want to DM and they like each other, so no one wants to split and run because they love a particular ruleset over friendships. [*]My gamers might be a bit leery about learning a new ruleset, but if I'm cooking it up (and I tend to be a good cook), they'll be game. We might actually find some fun trying out Wild West, Sci Fi, the joy of 0-level funnels for DCC, or a trip to the setting of Dragon Age.
