I have had a 5e group playing on Discord and Roll20 for about four years now - I've had fun, and they've said they've had fun. For various reasons, I am done with 5e and am planning on switching to OSE... but we are in the middle of a campaign. Most of my players started playing with 5e, so they have no experience with other systems. My general plan is to try and finish the campaign (there is an end goal) by the end of the year, and then cut over to OSE in January.
I am planning on bringing this up to the group soon, but my general feeling is that they will (mostly) not be interested in switching - character death and the loss of all the shiny level-up powers would not make them happy.
I feel bad for changing direction halfway through a big campaign, but likewise, I honestly hate 5e more every time I play it now.
Do I owe it to my players to finish it, or does my plan sound fair enough? Should I just discuss it with them and make the break sooner?
