I prefer it still be a matter for ongoing debate - because it comes down to opinion and opinion doesn't equate fundamental truth. Opinions should differ, the world is all the richer for it. No one is saying indie games don't do it better but I reject the idea that it cannot be done in another ruleset. Again it's expectations, I'm too old and have spent too much time ignoring 'authority' to be dictated to by anyone: once I have paid for game it belongs to me to do whatever I want with it - provided its still fun and the social experience everyone at the table expects. They are just games - people get to heat up about that and wanting people to agree with how they play. You do you, I'll do me - for me games are an escape from the literal life and death decisions that go with my real world responsibilities (and ironic that those responsibilities during the pandemic have meant, being a front line worker, no face to face gaming with my group for over 12 months). If anything I look at the likes of Mongoose who grabbed game licences and did different things with them - regardless of the original designers intent.</blockquote>
