[QUOTE="Gorgoroth, post: 6258046, member: 6674889"] Damage on a miss baked into 3 core PHB classes, including the fighter (the most popular class in the game), ranger, and paladin (my favorite class), is like sprinkling anchovies randomly on every pizza anyone who enters the store orders. Only a DM can ban things, and that's one person. That's analogous to the parent who's paying for the pizza putting their foot down. But if it's up to the "kids", then no, you can't put stuff that other kids are allergic to, even in the same viscinity on the same pizza. One pizza = one D&D table. Even if one player at my table picks damage on a miss, I cannot sit through that sheer asinine idiocy, I'd rather slice my eyeballs open with razorblades or staple my scrotum to my chair than play such a mind-warping game of intellectual self-assassination and doublethink. If no one can come to terms with what to put on there, you have to go with a plain cheese pizza, that offends no one. And people like Obryn, who are lactose intolerant (or, in this case, D&D Next intolerant), should just stay home and eat something else instead. Sorry dude, you're wasting your time with D&D Next if you don't even want to play it at all, regardless of whether one or two things are in it or not. Furthermore, you're wasting everybody else's time here because it will likely never appeal to you. How do I know this? By your own words!! You make up stuff on the spot as reasons to like D&D Next, like suddenly you love all PC races having 30 speed, as if we don't see right through that. You haven't posted a single thing about PC speeds needing to be homogenized and then you write in my thread about D&D Next demihuman speeds as if your opinion is pertinent. You are not even going to be a paying customer!! And you're trying to tell the pizza shop how to run their business!! And you don't even like Pizza! Because you're lactose intolerant! And you're telling other kids they shouldn't like pizza either, because it excludes you. Well.....Too bad. D&D Next is largely great, except for one or two glaring pieces of crud, and if it weren't for those, they'd have a hit. But with those, you still don't like it enough to play it, so that's TOO BAD FOR YOU [/QUOTE]
