It's perfectly fine to carry ten short swords, five crossbows, six quarterstaffs, five sets of leather armor, a set a scale mail, two greatswords, and twelve goblin short bows, but picking up a barrel is a step too far?
Yes it is because the five sets of leather and ten short swords aren't weapons of mass destruction...
I will never understand you people, it´s not about you personally, but people in general.
There are people talking about playing with a BORING human being ONLY because the race receive a bonus that will maximaze damage. Then, by another hand, are against players that really use creativity during combat.

On one hand, I get that some people think the barrels are "cheesy," but on the other hand I don't care.
Personally, I don't use the barrels. Not because I don't want to, but because I have this problem where I'm always trying to save them for the next big fight. So, I never get around to using them. Same with potions and scrolls and such. I'm trying to force myself to use this stuff more; otherwise, it all goes to waste.
Anyway. I find the barrels interesting, just like I find the terrain interesting. It makes the combat much more dynamic than the old: I run up and hit. I hit again. I hit again. Instead, the battlefield itself becomes much more important, much more alive.
I accept that some of you don't like the barrels. But trying to get them out of the game so I can't enjoy them is annoying.
I think the same. The combat became much more interesting than MIN-MAX numbers alone.
I actually find this fetish for MIN-MAX numbers annoying to the core. Not that I hate math or something similar, it´s just annoying. I want more creativity during combat.
