[QUOTE="FitzTheRuke, post: 8740035, member: 59816"] I have to admit, I [I]do[/I] know about D&D editions encouraging certain bad behaviors (for example, I didn't enjoy 3.x for most of its run because it did so much to encourage power gamers and rules lawyers). I also wasn't too fond of PF2's 3-action economy (looks GREAT on paper!) because I always had to enforce it when players constantly tried to do FOUR (or stop at 2!) actions on their turn. I haven't found 5e to be too bad for this, but I often play with people who are either new (so therefore listen to what they're told) or my home group (so have long ago worked out how we do things) OR here on PBP (who are generally on their best behavior, for the most part). In spite of running in-store games, I haven't played with a lot of people who know what they're doing, but have a lot of bad habits. Not lately. (I have done it A LOT in the past!) So 5e has been good for me when it comes to this. I can see how this new rule could potentially cause some friction, though thankfully it won't come up often. (They would have to BOTH roll out-of-turn AND get a crit.) It will be annoying when it happens, though! [/QUOTE]
