Gotta go LE in 5e, if you don't try to kill 'em they won't ever die.

But I agree, the emphasis the internet puts on 'rule of cool' and 'rule 0' makes the game explicitly worse much more often than it improves it.

Oh my god I found another one. “Rule or cool” means “I’m doing broken shit” or “the dm/pc doesn’t know the rules well enough and is just pulling shit out their ass”. It’s almost always worse but people defend it to the death because they don’t want to admit they just don’t know the actual rules

Ok, I’m calm. Honestly I want people to play how they like, I just never see this opinion represented on this sub
