[QUOTE="tetrasodium, post: 9584037, member: 93670"] MCDM was mentioned way more often than expected. After doing a quick search for mcdm from the OP in this thread it seems that [I]multiple[/I] posts go into how mcdm stuff was used pretty extensively and the [B]OP itself has this to say [/B]"[U]This is an [I]MCDM[/I] adventure with a bunch of buffed monsters too, it would be worse using 5E or 2024 standard monsters".[/U] What I find most notable about the last page or two of posts is that after a decade of catering to their blame the gm segment of the player base wotc still hasn't noticed that said segment is also the first to ignore their willingness to dismiss anything that could have shifted fault away from the gm in a rush to cite vague [I]([U]very[/U] much known)[/I] unknowns that make it impossible to even suggest that the gm [I]could [/I]have been sandbagged. It's been over a decade 5.24 failed so spectacularly at adjusting for that. Deliberate choice at wotc or a mandate from Hasbro seems like the root cause of the OP's observations. [/QUOTE]
