[QUOTE="Aria Silverhands, post: 4224839, member: 66086"] I keep repeating it because it's a problem. Its not something you should like. The DM has to have control over what is allowed in their campaign. Period. They can listen to player suggestions and think it over, but the players should not ever expect to get their way all the time, like it seems the PHB is being written for 4th edition. Every article and excerpt I've read about the phb keeps pointing to player entitlement and it's bullcrap. I don't want my campaigns ruined and I'm sick of the rulebooks making me out to be the villain. It just makes perfect sense to me for a game to be designed middle of the road. That way it offense the least amount of players and dm's. Magic rich is not middle of the road. WotC made a mistake with how they're wording campaign effecting aspects of the game in the PHB. Stuff like that should have been left in the DMG period and each broad style given at least a blurb. Edit : I've gotta go run some errands, but I'm not arguing about whether or not 4th edition can handle different styles of campaigns. What I am arguing against and criticizing is the tone with which the writers have written the rules in the book. The rules are fine. Easily modded and well thought out for the most part. My issues, again, is how they're written. [/QUOTE]
