Not if they haven't seen (or possibly heard) of 1E. There's no telling how they might react to an empowered DM and speed increase.

Hobo, please chill out. ;) No reason to be so angry. Its just a game for goodness sakes. Thats nice that you like customization, I do too (3.5 is great for this). But 3.5 and 1E are different games. Just because you ONLY like customization, and wouldn't consider archetypes, doesn't mean...

I agree, on my part this is wishful thinking. But so what? One reason 3.5ers might like AD&D is the ability of not having so many options (across the board). Once everything seems to be like everything else (the MU with armor, the fighter with spells) a desire to get back to archetypes could...

If you don't care one way or the other great. I didn't say you did. :confused: But others are at times hostile to 1E (as well as C&C), which is unfortunate. Its a small gaming community already. We should try to get along. ;) For us, 1E is simpler to run: generating PCs with (no...

I'm not saying 3.5 is broken. IMHO it works well for the system that it is. And I'm sure 4E will work well too. However, transition times like this can be good for shaking things up. Getting people interested in earlier versions (and perhaps try them out). One can play both 3.5 and 1E and...

With 4E coming out, I wonder if we'll see more 3.5 players start looking at 1E and OSRIC/C&C (and other new 1E support material). To some extent I think 4E is a response to public awareness of these 2 systems (a return to simplicity). Certainly, they're promo tries to play off of the evolution...

I don't mean this as a matter of refinement "the latest version is the best" I don't believe this. I think 4E is probably going to be less satisfying as a game then any of the earlier versions. What I mean is, are the changes that are being made required for the "organism" D&D to survive (what...

Greetings. You didn't have an option for my experiance, so I didn't vote. :\ I hadn't played D&D since about 84' (left after the sillyness of Dragonlance became the norm and 2E popped its ugly head). When WOTC first launched 3E I flipped the pages, liked it, purchased all the books and...

Man, don't worry about your players, make yourself happy first dude. All you need is one or two other guys right, and it sounds like you have them. Of course, you seem a bit wishy washy about really wanting to try it out again. As for house ruling 3.5 into 1E AD&D, probably a bad idea for...
