[QUOTE="GMforPowergamers, post: 8960615, member: 67338"] over the last 5 years (so second half of 5e) I have had players remember (misremeber) rules they were SO SURE OF multi times and it turrns out it was a 2e or 3e or 3.5 or 4e rule that they missremembered thinking it was a 5e one... Heck I have had a player swear mindflayers were from the future by default in the current edition multi times be proven wrong and STILL remember the damn Bruce Cordell book from 3.0. She isn't being a pain or trying to force older ideas on the groups, she just has a SUPER stressful job and doesn't spend time memorizing D&D stuff like she used to and older stuff still clicks with her. I had a player in a game I am playing go nuts looking to see how much XP he lost cause his familar died, and when the DM told him "don't worry, even if you find it I wont make you lose XP for this" continued for a week trying to find the rule... I finally in a text said "Try the 3e PHB...that rule hasn't been a thing in 15ish years" (this is in 2022 not 2023 but still within a year of today) and THAT is all I hhave been saying for months... that is how MOST not just 50 or 60% but closer to 90% of tables will run... one or the other not both, maybe one with a smattering of 'house rules' porting from the other... NOT BOTH [/QUOTE]
