Message: <blockquote data-quote="Iamoutofhere" data-source="post: 8551053" data-attributes="member: 7028666">Cubicle 7 are cool and I wish them well but…I really didn’t like what they did with The One Ring for 5th Edition (Adventures in Middle Earth). The original rules (The One Ring) were much better and more evocative. I suspect it’ll be the same with this. In AIME as a player I always ended up at disadvantage because of monster ‘powers’...and that sucks. Also…playing a super armoured, defensive character with an amazing AC…creatures bypassed all that by having me make DEX saves to avoid their physical attacks (knives and such..nothing exotic)…making my character feel like a waste of time. Rubbish rules.My biggest problem with their Doctor Who Rpg wasn’t the mechanics which looked alright from a brief look. I don’t like the modern Doctor Who shows…I’m a Troughton/Pertwee/Baker guy…and having the core book loaded with art from the newer series rubbed me the wrong way. I would have liked to see a ‘vintage’ edition with one of the older gang on the cover. I would have bought that.…but seeing the new Doctors up front and centre put me off every time. I know I am an old fart and probably not the target audience but that’s what I would have liked to see…and it might have made me a customer.As to using D&D 5th Edition…it’s D20 glut happening all over again. It’s really boring and all about business…not trying to make the best game. I’m looking forward to Dungeons & Dragons 4th Edition using 5e rules!<img class="smilie smilie--emoji" alt="🤪" src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f92a.png" title="Zany face    :zany_face:" data-shortname=":zany_face:" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" /></blockquote>
