Indeed, and you'll notice that I didn't try to say anything like that, I merely commented on the post that made the assertion that people were here for 5e. That has nothing to do with why I bought the game. I'm sure I'm not alone, just as I'm sure that there are people here thinking they'd have a perfect table top recreation of 5e rules in a cRPG. They'll be disappointed, of course, because that's simply not possible, at least, not in a SP campaign. There's no DM to arbitrate rule interpretations, for one thing. I came to see what this iteration of Baldur's Gate brought to the table, as someone that played the first two, a lot. What I didn't come here expecting was a 1 to 1 translation of the rules, because I know, from playing both table top and assorted other PC games based around D&D that we can't ever get that.

Hope I didn't break this, quote tree was too deep.
