They added specialist wizard, made the bard a regular class, kept most of the other classes, and kept the races. They added more spells, the saves were the same, Thac0 is basically the same. I'm at a loss, really. If people hate 2e because the "acrobat" went away, that's a pretty silly reason to hate 2e.</blockquote>
