Question 2: Have played more than one or two adventures as level 20th PC?Question 3: I don't like playing high-level PCs because...I've recently published on Dungeon Masters Guild an adventure for 20th level PCs (<a href="http://www.dmsguild.com/product/215482/Finders-Keepers?sb=1" target="_blank">Finders Keepers</a>). I'd been playing DnD5 for years and, although we started I think 3 or 4 campaigns we never had gotten to level 20. I realized it when thinking what to write next and immediately told my players to roll level 20th PCs. They looked at me and said: You're right! Yeah, we want to do that. And even though that adventure ended, we're still playing our level 20th campaign. Even after an almost TPK (my bad, I admit <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> ) the players just wanted to make new PCs and go on. Because you know what?Playing level 20th is so-much-fun! All the spells, all the abilities are there for you - at last - and you can feel the power of your PC. Yeah, leveling is fun, I know. But consider this: when you're planning a particular PC build, you usually assume getting to 20th - but how often you actually do so?It's a bit like what Blizzard did with Diablo 3 (I think a lot of you know the game): you get to max level quite quickly and then you can experiment with skills, builds etc., leveling up is there to teach you how to play, an extended tutorial of sorts. I'm curious about your opinion and experience, so share your thoughts!</blockquote>
