[QUOTE="Lord Twig, post: 8200050, member: 31754"] I will not pretend to have read the entirety of this (extremely) long thread, but I have read quite a bit, and I have seen your answers, but I don't think they actually answer what I (and others) are asking. But you don't need to post them again (and I'm sure you don't want to :) ) at this point I think people are talking past each other. So why did I post? I don't think I will change any minds, but this is a subject that I have an opinion on and do care about* and I wanted to let people know that there is support for default ASIs. If I, and others with a similar opinion, simply remained silent it would falsely suggest that the default floating species ASIs are universally approved of, which is certainly not the case. So obviously people have different opinions on this. The question now is how does WotC move forward while keeping the vast majority of their fans (and paying customers) happy? Remember, D&D is a business. It doesn't matter how morally correct they are if they lose customers. Hasbro will shut them down and move on, and companies like Paizo (which I think has a fantastic way of handling ancestry and backgrounds btw) will be ready to take their place, just like they did the last time D&D lost their way. *Obviously there are a great many issues that I care about that are far more important in the grand scheme of things, but I do D&D for fun, and I post on this board for fun. So... [shrug] [/QUOTE]
