That DnD group has a lot of problems for a SUPER NERD like me lol.
The DM shows obvious favoritism to the Bard person because they boink on the side. She should have died a bajillion times but instead of letting me save spell slots for the useful team members and having her re-roll he forced me to heal her. One time we were even spent on spell slots and he let her roll death saves with advantage for some made up BS reason.
We never did crits correctly for some crazy reason. He just tacks on a 1d4 on a crit instead.
The way he handles checks was just... it can't be right. I know the skills are there to do checks but it was like Perception checks for EVERYTHING. Looking for loot on a corpse? PERCEPTION CHECK. Found something, what is it? PERCEPTION CHECK #2! Is it worth anything? PERCEPTION CHECK #3!!!
We never had a surprise round, no matter how often we stealthed up to enemies or tried to ambush.
I dunno, it was bad for a lot of reasons but mostly the bard and her affect on the DM. I would have been a much better DM because I wasn't sleeping with any of the players for one, and for two I understand the game mechanics better.
