[QUOTE="Odhanan, post: 5312534, member: 12324"] My tastes change too. I started with AD&D, progressively broadening my horizons via the Dark Eye, Mentzer D&D, then Stormbringer, RuneQuest, Cthulhu, Warhammer FRP, Star Wars, then games like In Nomine Satanis/Magna Veritas, Cyberpunk 2020 etc. The White Wolf games for about a decade. Then going back to D&D via 3rd ed. I ran 3rd ed and d20 games for eight years as well, and never had a problem with it. I did grow tired of the emphasis on game mechanics all over message boards, people obsessing overpowered this and underpowered that, and so on, so forth. I gradually went back to traditional forms of the game, C&C, then AD&D, OD&D, and all sorts of Old School twists on these games. Now, I'm still running OD&D, but explore new venues more willingly. Aces & Eights, Mongoose's RuneQuest II, the New World of Darkness, the Savage World of Solomon Kane, Firefly's RPG are on my list of games I'd run in a heartbeat. I'm intrigued by 4E Essentials, as well as the new Gamma World. Now that I'm much more clear on what I like and don't like about RPGs, I'm ready to broaden my palette of games again, while squarely staying with my old school games also. Different games for different takes on role playing. It's a good time to be a gamer, for me. :) [/QUOTE]
