Okay but as long as we are complaining about shit we see on RPG forums
"I wish I could do
$thing
in DnD""
$otherSystem
has a very cool subsystem for$thing
""Omg how dare you"
Had this conversation enough times to make it a pet peeve of mine
Anyway the only thing about 5e that does suck is Wizards of the Coast. Otherwise it's fine. It's just fine. You can have fun with it.
I'm more of a Pathfinder 2e guy tho.
(And pf2 is basically a more advanced take on what 5e was doing so....)
5e needs a better way to balance encounters than Challenge Rating. It also has important rules for players in the DM book. Both of which are problems you can work around.
Yeah, it's basically fine. It got a lot of new people interested in RPGs (and Critical Role certainly helped, too). If they're all now looking for other systems to play, that's fine, too.
