[QUOTE="p_johnston, post: 8302184, member: 7016849"] I read (or at least skim) through a lot of other RPG system rule books to get ideas (and for fun). There is a reason most people tend to gravitate to 5E though. This thread is 9 pages long because it's about a rules change to 5E. If I created a similar thread with ideas about a rules change to say Fantasy Age/Fate/Cypher It would likely have less than 10 replies. In addition I have run 5E since it came out nearly weekly. When I make I change to 5E I can see what effects it has fairly quickly and see if it's making the game better or worse. In short I have a "feel" for 5E that I wouldn't have for any other game. Plus any other game I tried would require not only me but all my players to read an entirely new rules system. It's much easier for me to say "here's another page of Homebrewed rules to remember" rather then "read this 200 page rulebook." [/QUOTE]
