And so should you. Like I said, be the better person and walk away from this one.Well, like I said this is not "my" group. Their DM left.

I'm just struggling to understand why that would possibly become your problem? They have five other players who know the game.Well, like I said this is not "my" group. Their DM left.
Oh, there is: TPK.Groups are nuanced as they form and I don't think there is some magic internet solution to many of the problems that can arise.
They all want to play their characters, so no one wants to DM. But they do want to finish their adventure.I'm just struggling to understand why that would possibly become your problem? They have five other players who know the game.
I can understand someone leaving a group and then looking for someone else to fill the gap. But calling in someone new to be the DM, AND asking them to keep running the current game, just seems way outside my experience.
Still not your problem. Don't do it. This sounds like a group that plays completely differently than you like to DM. And you have stated many times that you will not change how you DM. It is unlikely they want to change how they like to play mid-campaign. What value for anyone is there in you being their DM? Most likely you will not like it and they will not like it. Again, do the smart, responsible, and adult thing and say: "sorry, this game is not for me." Then maybe give them some ideas on how to find another DM.They all want to play their characters, so no one wants to DM. But they do want to finish their adventure.
I think your players want to understand the parameters of a challenge at the outset...
How did you get roped into running this game in the first place? What's in it for you?They all want to play their characters, so no one wants to DM. But they do want to finish their adventure.
I think I have to echo the general sentiment: this is not your problem.They all want to play their characters, so no one wants to DM. But they do want to finish their adventure.
Money.How did you get roped into running this game in the first place? What's in it for you?
Oh. Ok, in that case just do literally whatever they say. No shame in doing what you’ve got to do to get yourself paid.Money.
