[QUOTE="hawkeyefan, post: 9002372, member: 6785785"] I don’t think that’s the case. In any given thread, certain opinions may be put forth, but I think the bulk of activity on this site revolves around D&D, and the bulk of that around 5e. I think in the case of this thread, the point was to challenge what’s considered the standard or common way that D&D is run and played. It’s asking if the typical amount of control is necessary. So the nature of the conversation will revolve around that. I don’t think that saying less control than is standard is all that’s needed is the same as saying that more control is “bad”. I’d say it’s often the default assumption, that any and all games work like D&D. And while I can understand some amount of frustration when other games are constantly brought up when discussion specifically is about 5e. But in this case, we’re talking about what level of control is necessary, so of course a variety of game styles is gonna come up, and mention of other games is gonna happen. But what does Rule Zero say? It’s not an actual thing, but instead is a bit of jargon that can mean a number of things. How can it regulate anything? [/QUOTE]
