Do you?

I don’t know about D&D as a whole, but 100% disagree with regards to 5e. We have had the most fun playing 5e and I wouldn’t trade that for all the other TTRPGs combined.

I don’t play the wizard, but my DM has said that he is the most powerful wizard in the world. So he is basically unique (as we all are really). So I would say that understanding guides how you play him. I do know he seems to have a lot fewer spells than what people around here seem to have...

What would you like me to explain? The encounters work better (according to my DM) because the math of the game is based around low magic. In terms of play, I mean we just play like we always have. I never play a caster so I am not sure how to even quantify how low magic plays differently. We...

Interesting, we do low magic and we are up to level 15. Why do you think it only works at low level?

That has not been our experience, can you clarify what you see as the issue?

When we play low magic (which wr pretty much always do), we still allow magic classes. The conceit is that magic is very rare and hard to come by (spells and magic items) If the PCs are a magical class they are basically unique (or nearly so) within the setting. We don’t technically limit...

Oh it is very easy. It is mostly just an exercise in subtraction/ removal. It doesn’t get much easier than that IMO!

I like the general idea, but it does seem the coast should be greater in time, slots, ability, or all of the above. I will talk to my DM about some nerfing house rules (if he hasn’t already looked at it).

The poster stated their autism doesn’t really let them move on. Once seen is corrupted forever in their mind.

Without some more detail on the players and encounter that seems like a very odd and foolish way for a group to approach the proposed situation. Now if you want ideas for PCs to recover from being unwise, that could be difficult if you are not willing to handle things on the DMs side

PS - if you don’t quote the person who asked you the question they may not get notified that you responded.

Yikes! I would find new players. I would never play with a DM who I don’t trust to play a cooperative RPG. D&D is not player vs DM, everyone plays together. If the DM or players don’t understand that and thus there is no “cheating” then I would just move on. No a t group I want to play with.

I’m sensing a pattern here!

I’m going to disagree here a bit. I could see arguing that it doesn’t help you, but I don’t think it fights you. We run social encounters wonderfully with the RAW tools. I realize not everyone can do that, but I can’t see how it fights you. I have no comment about exploration as that is not a...

Interesting, Is this from a i miss them as a signifier too,

I’ll push back a little. The 24 monsters typically still have the flavor traits you speed of, they are just not called out. They are tucked into the stats. So mechanically the same or similar trait, just no name. Though I miss them too. They also often added interesting actions in many cases.

I’m not the DM, but we just sort of roll with it. I’m sure we don’t all imagine the same thing, but if anyone needs clarity we just talk about it.

That is chipotle prices around here (which works for me a lot).

I don’t know where you live, but $150 +/- $30 can’t feed my wife and I with a class of bubbles or two in about 95% of restaurants in Seattle and this not a cheap market!
