    OSR Does "Old School" in OSR only apply to D&D?

    I think OSR really hit its stride when 4th edition came out. To a lot of players this was the last straw. They could see of the old games they played in 3rd edition but 4th edition was so different from the what was done before many players just said that was enough, we are going back.

    Superman (1978)

    In the comics Clark did go to college to get a degree. Also, in the Donner cut of Superman II the missile that Superman sends out into space does set the evil Phantom Zone criminals out into space.

    Overrated: The reimagined Battlestar Galactica. I grew up with the original and I still like it. I tried the new one and watched the miniseries and the first season and just could not stand it. It was slow, boring and I just couldn't handle watching their Boltar masturbating in the corner...

    The saddest thing about Babylon 5 is when you see the opening credits and realize how many cast members are gone now. And not of old age either.

    When I first started playing Castles and Crusades I had a player who even though they really preferred games like Pathfinder she didn't say that she liked that the rules didn't get in the way of the story.

    How many were abused due to their love of D&D, RPGs, and related items when they were young?

    My dad hated D&D but not because he thought it was satanic but because I spent more time playing than studying while I was in college. He attributed RPGs to me goofing off while he supported me in community college. So I kind of got it. Seriously, I just wasn't a college person and eventually...
