I'm not complaining, more new games the better, and some of them are very interesting.
Also, at least some of these youtubers turned devs have tried Pathfinder and that wasn't it, so spare the "why won't they just play Pathfinder?" comments

The weird part is that it only works if you transition
Was gonna say I was initially confused on why going so far into D&D made you transition
I transitioned but the lack of approval from my friends regarding the rule changes kept me from being motivated enough to write my own rulebook. We play a different rule system than DnD and my friends were like "Oh no, we like our fights uninteresting. Motivates us to seek other solutions" which is great that they're choosing non violent solutions but sometimes fights are unavoidable.
Funny enough, some of my proposed rule changes later appeared in an extra rule book by the official authors because they also thought that fights could be more interesting. Sadly I had no hand in that but I'm glad it happened because my friends are really heavy on sticking to official rules. Sorry this kinda turned into a rant.
Sounds like they supported your transition but not your homebrewing skills, so at least their hearts was in the right place.
