[QUOTE="Uni-the-Unicorn!, post: 9084382, member: 6909860"] Ok, that has a lot of information, but I don’t really see the answer I was looking for. What do “you” consider OSR style? Some background: I started with BECMI and 1e AD&D. We play 5e much the same way we played back in the day. However, we played different than some of the discussion I’ve seen here about OSR. For example, we’ve always hand waved resource management (food, equipment, spell components, etc.) in BECMI up through 5e. So to me, that is not important for OSR style, but to some here it is. Conversely, we have a much more deadly game than standard 5e. Which leads to the strategic play I associate with my BECMI days and that I enjoy. We also take a narrative / descriptive approach to our play as some here have described as being a benefit of OSR, but we are playing 5e. I don’t think of that as an OSR thing, but a D&D thing.
