And I don't entirely understand your answer. How is Free Basic D&D "impacted"? (I mean, I guess it would also have <s>background features</s> L1 feats that it didn't happen before - but again, aside from them being named feats, and being both more customizable and "powerful" than the old background features (most of which boiled down to "Hey, DM! Remember to have NPCs treat this character as if they are who their background says they are!") I don't really see how L1 feats are at all contentious.I have NO idea what you mean by your last sentence. How on earth does it bring back the "hard coded RAW style of 3.x and 4e"? Even if that were an objectively bad thing (it's mixed, really, depending on how and where it's implemented) - I don't even see how this change implies that.As far as the rest of the feats go, they're still optional! An ASI feat is exactly the same as an ASI was before... except for the name "feat" being there. Again - no pettiness implied - is the word that big of a problem?</blockquote>
