[QUOTE="BenjaminPey, post: 9766946, member: 7039344"] I confess having zero interest in all the 5e clones. Even the distant cousins like Shadow of the Demon Lord or 13th Age are far too close to DnD for me that I would bother investing in them, even though I will (and did) gladly play them when the offer is on the table. I have a DnD itch that needs scratching, and, no surprise, DnD scratches it. When I want something else (something other than, say, adventure game which revolves around combat, with level advancements and character builds), I play something else: Apocalypse World, Heart/Spire, Vampire, Nephilim, City of Mist, Lady Blackbird, Call of Chtulhu, Neon City Overdrive, whatever. Legends in the Mist is such a game for me, though, another type of game entirely, and I wouldn't have put it as a "different version" of d20-fantasy, even though I get why OP did (it did market itself as a DnD alternative). It doesn't revolve around combat, there's no levels, there's no character builds. [/QUOTE]
