5th edition is wildly popular and with good reason. As somebody who grew up playing AD&D 2/2.5, I will take 5E any day. The old rules were often convoluted and arbitrary. There was nothing refined about the old saving throw tables. 😂

Really? because I can't find any other pc games based on 5th edition dnd rules. BG3 is the first one to my knowledge. You seem to be trying to make this about the rule set, but I'm trying to focus on computer games. It may be wildly popular, but the jury is still out on whether it makes for a great computer game.
