I play AD&D. I have tried a few of the newer editions and while I do like some of the things they introduced they just weren't for me. I find that D&D much like MMOs seemed to become more 'player friendly' as time went on. 4e in particular just felt like I was playing something akin to World of Warcraft the few times I played it. 4e is probably more complex in terms of a combat system with all its various abilities + feats but the combat also felt more like a chore that would drag on and was pretty predictable. AD&D, while lacking tons of abilities, more than made up for it by having monsters that were just often perilous to encounter because they could just kill you based on a failed save. Level draining undead were also something to fear. Some people don't like these kind of mechanics and I don't really blame them as they can be a giant pain in the ass. Than again some people prefer WoW over EverQuest for pretty much the exact same reason. WoW is way more complex but predictable and EverQuest is a huge pain in the ass because of its many "hardcore" mechanics.

Lol fantastic! I play Ogres, Dark Elves, Wood Elves and Vampires myself =) Meet up every Saturday for tabletop and BBQ. Hoping to start up a new DND campaign as well with the same crew. On off days classic Everquest suffices.

Ahhh, the joys of being a nerd.

My buddies from the old days occasionally get together from the 4 corners of the earth around holidays and binge for a couple days.

Second edition only.

I agree, unless you've ever played with a GREAT DM, it's not really much fun.

ive always had the privilege of being the DM and thankfully i learned from people who played ad&d and the star wars rpg put out by west end games. these were i think some of the last games that put a real pressure on the dm to be excellent. with the later editions of the games the mechanics took over and the story telling took a side role

I wonder if E.G.G. were still alive if he would have a regular weekly game? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
