    I know very little about DnD so I don’t know what you’re talking about, but if you mean more difficult or complicated, please no, I’m mainly a MMORPG player, having more complicated mechanics would make it almost impossible for me to get into this game.

    I believe BG3 is attracting a wider audience than pure DnD/cRPG players, having it accessible is a very good thing IMO.

      Dungeons and Dragons is very old now. When they release a mechanics update, they change the edition. 5e is the current edition of D&D. 4e was the previous edition, 3.5e before that, etc.

      The older versions are generally more complex than 5e as it’s designed to be a bit more streamlined and accessible, but the old versions aren’t strictly harder in terms of difficulty, more just mechanic complexity.
