[QUOTE="GrimCo, post: 9283238, member: 7044462"] Well, we might discuss semantics. But words matter. FE If i say to someone - we play D&D 5th edition, core only, it should be self explanatory that it means- PHB classes/races only. Sorry, but Tales of the valiant isn't D&D 5th edition. It's game based on 5ed rule set, but it's game of it's own. Same like PF1 isn't really 3ed D&D. It's Pathfinder, game based on 3ed d&d rules, but it stands on it's own, Not to quote everyone, but i saw some discussion about success of D&D. Only objective measure of commercially released game is market share and sales figures. If it sells good, it's success. It means design was good enough to convince people it's worth their money. And comercial sucess is good. It means there is large player base. Large player base means it's easier to find groups to play with. There might be better designed games out there, but what's the point if they are obscure and there are few people playing them? [/QUOTE]
