Keep playing D&D like nothing happened or play something else. There's not going to be another "one game to rule them all". D&D will likely continue to hold that position.Cool. Good luck making a game that gamists, narrativists, simulationists, the OC crowd, etc can all play together and be happy with. You'll need it.Or just don't have people bad at math run games. Or provide some basic guidance on the probabilities of dice in the games...you know...like they used to. Besides, about 99% of the game is the referee describing the situation, the players describing their characters' actions, the referee adjudicating the outcome, and then describing it narratively. Besides, as you say, you primarily need a resolution mechanic. That resolution mechanic plus the play loop and you're done. You don't need a corporation to package that and sell it to you.</blockquote>
