[QUOTE="Ovinomancer, post: 8474654, member: 16814"] They would have to recognize that advice on how to roleplay is actually a critical rule that governs large sections of play. I find this assertion to be particularly bald. Really?! You've adjusted so many of them. You have a special way of dealing with insight vs deception that involves convoluted descriptions while still passing on the information for what the PC is supposed to think about it. You have an artificial distinction between knowing a thing and thinking a thing. You have parts of monster stat blocks being there only to support GM solo play. You have to modify how the basic loop of play functions for particular things. I don't see how you can actually say you haven't adjusted things, even if you believe all of these to be proper and correct! The case for not having to adjust these things would be if each of them was clearly presented in the rules so as to not need the additional thought and alignment to your premise! I mean, we can argue about if these things are persuasive or not, but I can't, for the life of me, see any valid argument for no adjustment needed! [/QUOTE]
