I will wait.It's not silly at all. Who do you think you're communicating to here? Do you imagine for a moment if you persuade me to dislike something I currently like, that I have the ability to make it different for you? My man, there was an entire playtest and survey series for 18 months straight. There was an email address to communicate with WOTC directly about this topic. If you think you're fighting the good fight, that was the place to do that activity.Here? It's utterly useless to do it here. The company you're angry at gave you the tools you need to complain. Use them, not your peers!Now you're just insulting your peers who dissent from your view. We're not lemmings for liking something you dislike any more than you are a lemming for liking those other options that you like. Please don't do that.I play 5e BECAUSE I LIKE 5E. And I also like 5e because it's what my group likes and plays, and we're all adults with families and kids and careers and spouses and we have zero interest in spending the time to switch, beyond the relatively minor changeover to the 2024 version supported by our existing subscriptions to DNDBeyond. That doesn't make us a lemming, just a normal human being who likes what they like. When we were younger and had less responsibilities and more time and energy we were more willing to try many different games. Your choice in coming into this D&D message board relatively recently (and full of fans who sometimes, like myself, have been here for nearly 25 years), jumping into the section devoted to fans of 5e in a deeply dismissive, repetitive and often snarky manner to bash that game, was probably a bad strategic choice to accomplish your goal.It has, as far as I can tell, persuaded zero people so far. All you're accomplishing is irritating some fans by coming into their fan forum to call them lemmings for liking what you don't like.Maybe try advocating more for the games you do like. I bet that would get more people to consider your views than your current strategy. In fact, what are some games you like? I am genuinely curious and promise to listen and not judge whatever those other games are that you like.</blockquote>
