Maybe it's about a system, a specific mechanic, lore, builds, types of players, ttrpg-adjacent products - whatever they are, share them.

    In "defence" of 5e at least, the miniture skirmish aspect is garbage and minmaxing genuinely does not matter. I play absolute trash builds in 5e and still perform nearly as well as the main maxers because it's so dice dependent.

      Yeah 5e is what I would call "pretty good" balance-wise. You can min max but it's not going to completely overshadow someone who doesn't. Compare a PAM/GWM/Sentinel fighter to a fighter who just takes ASIs and the difference is a lot smaller than the difference between an optimized character and a non-optimized one in 3.5.
