I get used to people telling me to try another game, but if I do and you tell me it doesn’t count for some stupid reason and basically saying what you meant was “Pathfinder or old editions of d&d”? Yeah I’m fucking mad.
EDIT: Because I see reading comprehension is bad af here: Someone told me to play a different game. I told them I’m already doing Blades, first session tomorrow. they told me Blades doesn’t count and told me to play Pathfinder and older editions of d&d.
Are you are suggesting Blades in the Dark is some kind of derivative of D&D? If so, that is a very hot take. And even if you like 5e, imo, Pathfinder 2e is right there doing the same thing but better.
See my other comment, it was a person trying to get me to play pathfinder who started with “play other rpgs” and then said Blades “doesn’t count”.
