[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 8031339, member: 6801845"] Sums up my thoughts as well. I will say that there have always been and will always be some people that complain about some aspect of D&D and have a grand plan to fix it. Yet 5E is selling incredibly well, the majority of players are now the next generation. That's a good thing, but it's also counter to the narrative going around that we must make dramatic and drastic changes. There have been and always will be things that could be improved and done better. Diversity of thoughts, opinions and points of view should be welcome. But getting rid of ability scores? Completely eliminating alignment instead of just making it a general descriptor like it is in 5E? Making all humanoids just a sub-race of human while just shifting evil to the real world analog of culture and religion? That's changing some of the foundational aspects of the most popular TTRPG ever developed. Maybe it would be a better game, maybe it wouldn't. I just hope we don't over-correct like they did with the response to the Satanic Panic. [/QUOTE]
