[QUOTE="ForeverSlayer, post: 5915195, member: 91812"] What does "limiting your imagination" have to do with restrictions? This is something that I have heard several times but doesn't really make sense. Let's take the Bladesinger for example. This is a class that is the epitome of elven culture. It is a class that is considered to be the highest honor in elven society. It is a secretive and guarded class that elves risk their lives to keep the techniques a secret. Now I know there could be reasons as to why but niche ideas are not the reason to open it up to everyone. So in every campaign that you play in the elves made an exception to the rule to allow you to learn the art of Bladesinging? Am I limiting the imagination because I have a restriction that actually makes sense? No restrictions just for the sake of it is not good game design. I think it's better to have restrictions that can be hand waved than vice versa. [/QUOTE]
