[QUOTE="heylel, post: 7016332, member: 3021"] Ah... you just had me hit hard by the nostalgia right now. :lol: Regarding the "sound like D&D", my current players have only played AD&D2nd, 3.x and now 5ed. And they consistently took part in sandbox campaings that whent 'epic' while playing 3.x, [U]which I now reason may be the root cause of their expectatives[/U]... Well... as far as I have experienced, that is the normal progression in all versions in D&D. 5ed kind of flattened the ramp up, with its 'bounded accuracy' thing, but, for example, you would usually not set 15th+ level party vs an equal number of CR 1-3 monsters and expect it to be really challenging. By analogy, a 25th+ level party would not find an equal number of CR 11-13 monsters to be challenging... I believe. Now, this is a persuasive argument. :D [/QUOTE]
