[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 8641753, member: 7006"] But then again... oftentimes it seems like a lot of the discussion on the boards actually comes down to... "5E is flawed in X ways, and thus Y needs to happen to fix it, and WotC needs to put it in a book." With the retort then being "5E is popular, and since it seems that most of those people who contribute to that popularity do not actually have the same problem with X or needs Y that you (and maybe a few others) do... there's no real reason for WotC to go out of their way to fix it. You can just fix it yourself in your home game." To me THAT seems to be the argument that occurs more often. That a change only "counts" if WotC agrees with the person with the problem and adjusts the rules to match. And is why the comment of popularity usually gets brought up-- if nine out of ten people don't have the same issue of "quality" than the remaining tenth does... maybe that level of so-called quality isn't actually necessary? Or at least not on the timetable that tenth person's demanding? [/QUOTE]
