[QUOTE="clearstream, post: 8941941, member: 71699"] I see that my claims are being railroaded toward a destination they are not intended to go. I do not say that 5e played following a set of principles drawn from AW will be the same game. More, I say it will be a much different game from 5e played under other principles, and that it will be in the neighbourhood of PbtA in significant respects (even while remaining a fantasy game, continuing to have its distinctive classes, spells, etc.) I point to rules in the DMG because it seems clear to me that in their absence, 5e could lack technical features required to emulate nuanced resolution. If my claims are read to mean it would be identical, then unsurprisingly that seems preposterous. But that is a strawman. Recollect that at the outset, I endeavoured solely to exemplify a set of claims that I guessed could feel undermining to passionate fans of specific games. I did not provide them in order to say that 5e would [I]become[/I] those specific games. My narrow conversation with one poster has been expanded quite ridiculously. However, it now seems right to me to have chosen those particular claims as examples, as I can see that the very possibility has served as a red flag and evoked strong responses. [/QUOTE]
