Message: <blockquote data-quote="James Gasik" data-source="post: 9715576" data-attributes="member: 6877472">I had a discussion the other day with some friends about which version of D&D we liked best.  My breakdown was this:2e for lore and interesting settings.3e for player options.4e for the DM, with encounters being very easy to build and run.5e for newer players.  Not as complex as previous editions, fewer options and decision points. Characters aren't as durable as 4e ones, but healing is unlimited and players can still punch well above their weight class.Nothing comes close to 3e for the wide variety of characters one can build and play, with support for almost any character idea you can think of.  They may not be very good, but you can still do it. From playing a Wizard/Sorcerer to a Warblade who can almost hang with the casters, to psionics, characters who laugh at the concept of a 5 minute workday, to even stranger things like binders and totemists.  With class ability swaps, variant races, wacky books like Savage Species, and more, if you want to play a Redeemed Succubus Paladin/Soulknife, you totally can.Or like this meme attests:[ATTACH=full]412486[/ATTACH]You may not be a very good character, but you can definitely be what you chose to be.</blockquote>
