The rollout of this new edition has earned them a lot of (well deserved imo) goodwill, and that means they have done things right according to the "fanbase silent majority". Being upfront about these different playstyles would have raised an uproar from those who can't conceive their way is not the one true way supported by the game. But I clearly remember the design team's objective of writing a game meant to be "Fiction first, roll high". And I think they hit the mark and gave us the edition of the game the best suited to this playstyle.By the way, a thread 700+ posts long where we were involved recently <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=":-)" /> should remind us Illusionism is a popular trend, and there's no badwrongfun on this side (even if I wouldn't like to play such a game anymore). Also, isn't heavy-handed DMing the required mode to run (and sell !) Adventure Paths ?5e IS a big umbrella.</blockquote>
