[QUOTE="dave2008, post: 9565017, member: 83242"] I have shared my house rules on these forums several times. I'm working and will not post them now, but might later. However, regarding your issues: [LIST=1] [*]I have no issues with high level play. The only thing I would do is revise monsters, but I do that for all levels of play. That is not part of our house rules. It is possible that some of our house rules (death at 0 BHP) affect high level play though. [*]We typically fall in that 1-3 encounters per day and have had no issues with martial and caster balance. No house rule needed for us. It is possible some of house rules do affect this dynamic (allowing HD to be spent in different ways, like recharging short and long rest abilities). [*]I am not exactly sure what you are asking here. However, balance is not my primary concern when helping a player design a species they want to play. I have had players be giants, unicorns, dragons, etc. I tell my players" pick any sapient creature in the MM and we can make it work." I've done this for every edition and don't see it as specific 5e issue. It is not part of my house rule document as it is a case by case basis. I am not looking for balanced species creation rules. [/LIST] My house rules are about 1 page. I think switching to another RPG is just fine. I don't see that as a problem. Do what works for you. [/QUOTE]
