There are a lot of conversation about classes and races.
However I think that there isn't enough discussion on the other side of the board: The monsters. And how they are out of wack with the PCs
And, to me, it all comes down to the assumption of what the PCs have to bring against them. We did a playtest and more or less agreed to assume the PCs would have moderate optimization and not have magic items factored into power. Then we played 5e with most tables being widely optimized between joke and super with most tables handing out numerical bonus magic. (This before we looked at the poorly designed monsters and not even following CR)
And 1DND characters are (or will be) getting strongerraces origins and classes along with a better feat system.
So should One D&D even use the same PC assumptions as 5e?
5e's CR is broken anyway and most of the monsters don't follow the guidelines.
