[QUOTE="Virel, post: 2056475, member: 24633"] Well everyone is entitled to their opinion so I'll post mine too. I think 3e is better than 2e ed too As for being "better" than OAD&D, there are a lot things OAD&D can do faster and better than 3e. OAD&D rocks when used to run a nine player, three adventure party, 28 PC campaign due to it's extremely flexiable nature. The deadly nature of OAD&D generally makes it more intense compared to 3e and I've played both. OAD&D can allow for just as much role play and character development too, of course a wise player waits until around 4th level before worrying too much about "developing" the character. Of course either version can suck if the DM isn't up to the task. 3e works very hard to protect the player from bad DM's. I think 3e is more robust and able to flow fairly well even with a bad DM due to rules for everything. This protects the player from DM's with bad judgement. It really comes down to what one does with their favorite flavor of D&D. I'll take the main course in OAD&D and keep 3e as snack food. [/QUOTE]
