I've been reading the #FabulaUltima #ttrpg (or rather #ttjrpg but that's not a useful hashtag) today and I am very impressed. It feels like it takes an approach which would suit so many 5e players and give them what they want from a game - story and character focused but still with dice and combat and builds and items - when they are frustrated by some of 5e's incompatible system assumptions.

If you want to play a game with a bunch of folk going on an epic quest why fight that? Lean into it.
