[QUOTE="Sacrosanct, post: 6851659, member: 15700"] This is primarily for AL or pick up games where you're playing with new players outside of your normal group. One things I've noticed for a while, and it happens extremely frequently, is that players will compare 5e to their favorite edition while playing. That's not a big thing really, because most everyone does it at some point. But if you want to avoid edition warring and plain ol frustration with other players who don't share you preferences, keep it to a minimum. For example, in my AL game, there are two players who CONSTANTLY refer to how things were done "better" in PF (You can do soo much more tactically! You could stack all these effects!", etc). After a while it gets really old. I don't care how it was done, we aren't playing PF. I've seen time and time again how that starts to lead to edition warring between players as it is the first seeds to an argument. So if you're playing in AL or pick up game, try to catch yourself if you start comparing about how a previous edition you like better did it better. Not everyone at the table shares your preferences. Regardless if your favorite edition is OD&D, B/X, AD&D, 3e, 4e, or 5e, focus on the edition that you're playing at the table. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
