honestly though

the bigger issue is that you're creating a rule set that is going to have very little development and testing, and then you're going to expect ~4 other people to learn this new unfinished rule set to play one campaign

unless you've got plans to develop it properly

you'd be better off using some existing rule set and adjusting the setting to suit your campaign

gurps is one example that is literally exactly for this lol

this

I personally always base shit on 5e but take elements from other games

balancing is a lot easier if you've got shit right in front of you that is basically equivalent to what you're trying to do

<:kek:590371888480387073>

d&d has had decades of development by hundreds of fuckin autistic nerds and millions of dollars poured into

one man isn't going to match that

though I suppose some of those Kickstarter games have done okay

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

trying to make my friends play 3,5 or pathfinder with me aint working out 😔 @Dust

havent played pathfinder in months

5e plebs are scared of 3.5

because they're too used to easy mode

"I don't want to have to learn actual rules"

thing is, 3,5 would really fit us. we like discussing how to make pretty strong characters and planning ahead and yadda yadda

also big numbers are fun

and the abundance of books and shit is so good

yeah you've got way more customisation options in 3.5/pf

you're not just generic fighter #27

archetypes and prestige and etc

Lol imagine not playing AE

most of the prestige classes became subclasses in 5e @Dust

@Antiboom<:what:382980756139409409>

Arcana Evolved? The Monte Cook thing?

I honestly prefer prestige class system over 5es subclass and multiclass rules

@Dust @Almagafor advanced edition

advanced edition of what?

imagine trying to flex and getting the name completely wrong

it's ad&d

is that what you meant, @Antiboom?

Not even trying to flex

Just getting the name completely wrong

<:covfefe:440543908846632980>

AD&D is what, like 1.5?

Kind of it's fun af tho, best campaign I ever had was 1st edition tho

So many dead characters

Got some 1st edition books too, but haven’t really ever played with anyone
