[QUOTE="JamesonCourage, post: 6034807, member: 6668292"] 2/3? When I posted it was 40/60, and it looks to be about 39/61 now. Pretty much the same. Regardless, even if it was 1/3 of people... if one-third of your player base want the core starting point of the game to fit a certain concept, and you can cater to that, it's probably best to do so. The same goes for the 60% of people that think PCs are special, obviously. Thus, dials. I'm special because I'm wealthy? No NPC can ever become wealthy, or is wealthy? Your arguments aren't resonating with me, but I think that has more to do with me missing your point, somehow. This is an argument I haven't heard before. This is the "usual arguments" I mentioned. They've been done before; I don't care about them as much as I care about what the playerbase wants out of the game. Obviously 40% of people who voted think PCs are some level of Joe Average. I think it makes sense to offer an option that appeases such a large group (which, obviously, WotC should probably double check through feedback). So, yeah, I could go through the arguments with you, and we can argue edition differences, exceptions, and the like. But, what's more important to me is how people play the game. And that means you can disagree if you want to, but if I had my way, we'd both get catered to. And thus it'll be hard to move me from my position. Because, as always, play what you like :) [/QUOTE]
