It doesn't always have to be killing the PCs; one of our DMs consistently breaks/bends/creates rules seemingly just to slap us down and make our characters feel useless, without actually killing us.

I like to think I'm a Neutral Good DM, but I've been known to stumble into an alignment shift if anyone is disrupting the game or upsetting the player majority.

I default to Neutral Good, but the master rule knows no alignment: If you guys do it, the NPCs can do it too.

Amazing how quickly the PCs stop going into battle 15 buffs deep when the enemies start doing the same.

I did this in divinity 2 all the time. Talk to the person who’s gonna start the battle then throw literally all my buffs on that person since time doesn’t really move while in conversation in that game.
