@silverwizard just reminded me of that d&d campaign I was in where an owlbear attacked and I fed it a bunch of goodberries so it wasn't hungry anymore and so was happy and stopped attacking because I was playing an animal loving druid.... but then the same thing happened with rats, and a giant squid... and just kept happening because the gm just kept motivating our enemies with hunger... eventually he stopped but it happened more times than I expected that goodberry just worked

So having a cool fight with an octopus in the sewer was 100% a thing he thought was cool. But then we just gave the octopus a goodberry and moved on.

•DM: You see a great elk in the clearing you need to hunt, do you set traps or try to shoot it from where you are?
Me: I use my paladin power to abjure it, making it frightened, and then I walk to it and plunge my great-sword between his eyes.
Thankfully the DM was delighted by my “solution”, DnD is stupid but fun when you take it as a puzzle board game.

Plus my first game was fate, which fits that so well imo
