“If the focus is on pure XP then you will turn your party into a bunch of murder hobos who strip every dungeon of its treasures room by room ”

Turn in to?  We may not have played in a long while but they’ve always been XP and loot hungry murder hobos.  We’d try other systems and we’d alwasy end up killing tha bad guy and taking his stuff no matter the setting or period, much to the annoyance of whoever was DMing at the time.  I’m hoping to break some old habits.  Youve some good advice up there.  I’ll take it under advisement as we go forards.  I made everyone write a short backstory with a basic motivation to be here (First time I think ive see the whole party with a background) and I hope to find ways to work with everyones over the coming months.
