[QUOTE="Sword of Spirit, post: 6880907, member: 6677017"] I agree with that. I've found that the number of house rules I have made to get it to fit my vision of how D&D should be is a lot less than for any other edition. And the way the game is designed it is also a lot easier to make those rules. So, yeah, if he wants to there are a lot of things he can do with it to make it closer to 3.5. I was just judging by the fact that his dissatisfaction seemed to stem from it differing from a favorite edition that he seems strongly attached to. In my experience, those least likely to want to adopt 5e are those most in love with a particular system. I've called them "Pathfounders", because they've found the edition they [I]like[/I] (and Pathfinder is only one of those), rather than are currently playing with the game they [I]like more[/I]. It isn't intended to be derogatory. If I had my way, I'd get everyone to try out 5e for a good long adventure at least, play with the variants and options that appeal, and then see how they feel about it. But then again, if a 6e does come out in another 10-15 years (and I'm not convinced that it will), it's quite likely that I'd be a 5e Pathfounder who wouldn't want to really try it. [/QUOTE]
