[QUOTE="Janx, post: 1630446, member: 8835"] Granted there's always a bungh of people who approach a new edition with the "I hate it" reaction, as well as those with the "it must be mine!" reaction. I don't hate 3.5. I'm approaching it from an econominc standpoint that I've got all the 3.0 books I need (which I frugally purchased) as do my players. I've got a house rule document wherein we try to capture the critical changes from the 3.5 SRD (there are few, basically the Ranger and Bard class, and the 3 H's spells). And that's it. I don't want to run my game from a print-out of the SRD (I paid for real books). And I don't feel the need to buy the new ones. Especially since I have a huge selection of AD&D1e and AD&D2e in my closet already. There comes a time to simply say, "I have enough." The fact that I ran AD&D2e for 10 years with the same books, says I ought to be able to do so with D&D3e for just as long. And when they wear out or I get a group that is predominantly based in the latest edition, I'll change. I won't bash AD&D2e, it was fun. Nor will I bash 3.5e which replaced my current edition.
