Message: <blockquote data-quote="Istbor" data-source="post: 6971838" data-attributes="member: 6801670">I guess I wouldn't say that 5e has 'problems'.  It has some hurdles or at least what some may see as obstacles, but I have never considered those problems with the game, but issues with me.  I understand that nothing is ever going to be exactly what I want unless I make it myself, and in doing so, nothing will be perfect then for my players unless I cater to that. So I make tweaks here and there, but I wouldn't say it is due to the system itself but my own groups preferences or my personal hang-ups. I guess case in point is magic items.  I hated what they became in 3e.  I hated that they were everywhere and that they could quickly become thinks you just throw away for the next big thing.So I enjoyed that 5e operates under an assumption of less items found and the limit with attuning to your items.   I still however feel that items presented are on average kind of boring. I continue to create my own magical items and I deeply enjoy making ones that require attunement as items that grow with you.  As you level and your proficiency increases (and you continue to use and be attuned to an item) the item unlocks further abilities and scales with you.  There is still that option of trading it in for another item that you prefer, but it allows old favorites to remain competitive and interesting. I am very much enjoying this edition over the previous 3 I have played. I would also say I don't want to DM in 3e or 4e ever again, if I can help it.</blockquote>
