I quoted your post, but was generally addressing the people that can make a difference, you know, the developers. Don't take me quoting you to mean that I am addressing you directly, especially if it seems like I'm addressing someone else.That's because most of the time I'm not advocating for 'my own preferences' I'm advocating for what will work best to make everyone happy with the game. I have only the best interests of D&D in mind. As of right now I wouldn't play 5E if someone paid me to (well I might, but I wouldn't like it). They will have to make quite a few changes to even bring it into a game I'd touch.Least common denominator is what everyone refers to when WotC removes contentious things from the game in the hopes of getting enough people to like the game to make it profitable.I happen to know that by removing things like tactics, powers, and choice (at level up, round to round, and during preparation) many people (anecdotal) have zero interest in the game.I convinced one of my regular 4E players to take a look to see if they wanted to try a one shot, because I want them to reject it because of their own view and not something I tell them, after downloading the last packet and reading it they deleted off their computer and told me never to talk about 5E again. This player also loves playing 3.5E and several other games.So its entirely possible to alienate a large chunk of your fans if you dumb the game down by removing anything contentious.</blockquote>
