The second one sort of depends on the player. I've had a few players that have made absolutely ridiculous characters but played them very well and it was a good experience.
The first one is a strong no. I've never seen anyone who does a broken meta build do anything beyond ruin everyone's time and complain (or quit) if the DM reins them in at all.
The first one works in a campaign that expects everyone to do the first one (and where the GM does the same for the enemies). Assuming the character is still a character when looking beyond the stats, that is.
I’m into more listening to game. I’ve never actually laid one.
Wouldn’t what you’re describing be pretty pointless. Like super inflation. Okay you’re a millionaire but bread is 1000 so does it really matter?
A game where every character is doing 1500… how is that different from every character doing 15 damage gameplay wise? You can add as many zeros as you want but if we all have those extra zeros isn’t it essentially the same?
