[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 8819062, member: 7006"] Your point about VTTs is exactly why I find complaints about not being able to "find players" to be silly. People can find players for all editions and games of D&D and others so much more easily than they ever could before VTTs and the internet. But I think what we're finding now is that because the total player pool is so much wider... players have begun condensing it themselves by getting more and more nitpicky about every single little game facet that they want. It's not enough to just say they want to find 5E players (which is quite easy in these days of VTTs)... but now they are saying they want 5E players that won't use Tasha's, will only play non-magical characters, no races other than these 5 specific ones the DM has chosen, and are okay with using the X, Y, and Z house rules the DM wants to incorporate into the game because they don't like how WotC's rules do them. And then when all these contingencies do not produce a viable player pool... [I]then[/I] they complain that WotC's rules changes have made it harder to find players. [/QUOTE]
