Do you remember Baldur's Gate fondly? If so: Pathfinder: Kingmaker. It isn't D&D (although Pathfinder is about the closest thing you can get to D&D without getting sued...), but it's the worthy spiritual successor to the game. (I'm only one hour in but it *drips* with it.)

Ask me about the total party kill due to an inanimate non-magical bush and repeated failed Lore: Nature rolls (despite a +8 bonus to it on my PC) by everyone... on a level 1 fetch quest. They, uh, they do not seek to make things easy.

Or the, lets say, iconic D&D monster they sprang on my party of four level 2 characters, which had me wracking my brains because I could remember all their stats from AD&D 2nd edition and was pretty sure that it would have been challenging for four level 7 characters.

5e is WAY better in that regard. Casters get damage dealing cantrips that attack using the ability score associated with their casting as a bonus to hit. Damage is usually slightly better than most melee weapons & cantrips can be cast every round all day long.

Ya know, there's cool technology that would allow us to play in a HUMAN D&D game via video conferencing. I wonder if there is much of that these days?

Magic users are way more powerful in 5th Edition. Although, as an Illusionist I tend to play a long game and my part is a little irritated that I'm NOT using Fireball. (I do things like create an illusion wall to protect our archer. Party isn't properly amortizing benefits.)

Although they now call me "the finisher" b/c I tend to FINALLY come in and finish off the Boss often :)

To this day I never play mages in videogames because I assume they’re too hard to bootstrap.
