[QUOTE="Imaro, post: 8267800, member: 48965"] Funny that because I in turn often see D&D lauded by non-fans or semi-fans as the game that only got coming to the market first right... or that isn't particularly good at anything or more commonly the game that people play because they just don't know any better... Look, I'm sorry you find D&D so hard to mod but unless you are straight up calling people liars I think it would be better not to presume that because you find something hard that they in turn must also find it hard. There has been no disrespect of designers or of players skilled in other games, where are you even getting that from? Framing the title as he did was because he was speaking about D&D specifically and in reference to using it as opposed to games made for a specific use in certain instances... that's what bespoke actually means, made for a particular user or purpose... how are you taking offense to that? I think for some the games they choose to play are intrinsically tied into a feeling of superiority when it comes to D&D... and when someone even hints that they are having as good a time as they are or that they don't need said games as opposed to D&D to have a good time... it's taken as an affront and blown way out of proportion.
