I'm currently listening to The Adventure Zone and Taako just destroyed 3 battle wagons with 2 spell slots and 1 die roll. Meanwhile Magnus makes like 5 rolls to get into a position where he can inconvenience one and then about as many rolls to actually do so. Almost none of this, for either character, was actually in the rules, it was just the DM making judgement calls on what he'd call fair when they tried to do stuff that weren't explicitly allowed in the rules. And then the DM says (paraphrased) "hey Magnus your +7 Strength check modifier is starting to be a problem."

I don't think I've ever met anyone who actually wanted to play Frodo Baggins

gradenko_2000 posted:D&D 5e rejiggering the math so that you don't need a +1 weapon, but then having loot rules that yield +1 swords anyway, as well as having so little guidance on how to get the party to spend their hundreds of gold that the GM will naturally gravitate towards +1 swords out of tradition is a great example of disjointed game design.

Eberron should have been the default 4e setting

If WotC bugfixed and made balance changes like Blizzard does for Overwatch, 5e might actually be a good game by now

MonsterEnvy posted:They actually have admitted they have made mistakes and there are things they would change. The issue is that they are reluctant to patch the game because it's selling well and is well received. Glad we're on the same page

The greatest tragedy of 4e is they never made a videogame out of it
