@LoamImprovement I hate it when I'm the invisible one. I'm frequently telling dms "oh, I'm not hidden. He should know where I am/what square I'm in"

@LoamImprovement For 5th edition, I've overwhelmingly played in AL, so ...

But I've seen a LOT of "inspiration can be used for a reroll" and "inspiration can be shared across the table".

I've also seen (too much) "Invisibility == Hidden", which I hate and don't use when I run. I've also seen a large number of variations of the bonus-action-casting rule

AL kinda inherently runs with a "every adventure starts with a long rest" pseudo house rule, which I like.

@jjjalljs kinda exactly? "Hero" a-la Snow Crash obviously had a "best swordsman in the meta verse" aspect. But did he have to spend a date point to win the swordfight when he was challenged in a bar early on?

In my game, my character was supposed to be talky-McTalk face, and I failed to talk my way into a bar because I wasn't willing to spend a fate point to do so. I shouldnt have had to.

@Phantaminum @jjjalljs I enjoyed Fate more in concept and rules book than as played. My GM was a firm believer in giving me as many opportunities to earn fate points as possible, and "constantly failing" didn't feel good

@jjjalljs @Phantaminum that mostly to me sounds like you're done with that GM? Which is very reasonable...

Have you considered running?

@jake_eric @Thyrian changing the stat jumps distance is based on seems as important.. for many, tripling the distance only effectively triples the static portion.

That said, this doesn't bother me: a few things will give fly.

But:
* mobility
* damage
* alternate attack

Kinda feels like 5th level to me. I'm not sure what i'd want from a 4th level version...
