I have often seen people in the same long time group who focus on different things, using D&D as an opportunity to roll dice and blow off steam without thinking too hard, getting really into first person characterization roleplay, fiddly tactical combat, resource management tracking, people who never speak in character, people who are along for the story, people who want to drive the story, people who are along for social time with their friends, etc.I like how 5e's PH fighter subclasses allow different resource management models to match different preferences, champion is mechanically simple with no added resource management, battlemaster adds a pool of superiority dice, and eldritch knight adds slot spellcasting, and they are all cool mechanically viable fairly well balanced options.4e did this a bit with adding essentials classes who were more at will and encounter focused but still fairly balanced against the original AEDU paradigm.Some players really like timing out when to use their dailies. Some just want to swing their sword and blast their spells and go full throttle all the time. When they can be in the same party and have it work out well I think that is ideal. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
