[QUOTE="Ruin Explorer, post: 8619412, member: 18"] That at least that Pillars one has a triumphant option for if you a specific background, I think it's philosopher, you can say "I KNEW IT!!!" or something to that effect. But yeah that kind of thing is super-annoying. EDIT - Tried to link it but it won't work - Nihilist Philosopher gets to say it anyway! Definitely some people will be. But honestly that's a better footing for learning to DM than learning from adventures written in the 1970s through 1980s! So if Gen X could learn from the original Keep on the Borderlands or Tomb of Horrors, I'm sure Gen Z will be fine learning from The Witcher 3 or Dragon Age Inquisition. But unfortunately the adventures I'm thinking of are either older (so it's unlikely) or written by people who are older (who thus didn't learn from that). I don't think I've seen any published adventures written by really young people yet, but I have seen RPGs written by them, and a lot of them have been really shockingly impressive (if leaning hard towards rules-light).
