What's the point to have "Ideals" next to "Alignment"? Are they mechanically different?

    5e has alignment, but there aren't actually any rules that depend on your alignment. I think they threw it in because it's D&D and you're supposed to have it?

    Yeah, that's my guess as well. It was definitely a bigger deal in previous editions, so I figure they just didn't want to entirely scrap what was previously a very core mechanic even if it's now very much less important.
