You may have been dealing with a particular issue that you wanted to get around, or go for a certain vibe using 5e as a starting point. I think that's the way that I would evaluate what you're doing. Some of the 5e/OSR systems are trying to take the same rules and restate them with just a few rough patches shaved off. Others are whole cloth new systems that want to emulate or recreate something that's missing - the way ShadowDark uses the real-time torch mechanic to create a sense of fear and a danger while exploring dungeons.So my criticisms (and really anyone's, no matter how negative) should be taken in that vein. There's always going to be someone who bounces off whatever you make, and there's always going to people who hate the idea of another person putting a clone out into existence. My two cents though is that you had a reason to do this work - you have to communicate that and why you think other people may want to consider it.</blockquote>
