[QUOTE="Ovinomancer, post: 8270224, member: 16814"] This post, and it's attendant likes, is hilarious to me because it is exactly what I said that everyone involved argued against, only here everyone's agreeing with it. Let's review: I said 5e has no support for heist style play, meaning that it's left up to the GM to generate ad hoc solutions. I also said Blades has lot's if support for heists, but you may not like it and that the system is tightly integrated and hard to rip for individual mechanics. This was roundly decried by the likers here. Magic Sword here said that if you don't like how Blades does heists, it is hard to ad hoc changes because the system fights you. However, with 5e, it is easy to ad hoc solutions, presumably because there's nothing in the system to get in the way. This has been viewed favorably by the same people that challenged my post. It is, however, saying the same thing, just with a change in tone to laud 5e. And, I was told it was offensive to suggest that preference might be interfering with analysis! [/QUOTE]
