[QUOTE="Imaro, post: 6184266, member: 48965"] For me personally I like 13th Age and have just started a game up this past weekend with my group, but I don't necessarily see it as an off ramp... more like a pit stop. That's not to say it won't be but I think it's a little to earl to tell... since I know for a fact my group will be giving D&D a chance when it's released. D&D is in a state of flux right now and not, at least for me and my group, stable enough to base our regular games on. We also don't particularly care for 4e. We've played 3.5/PF and we still enjoy it, but we were looking for something a little less mini-centric and simpler... that was what originally attracted me to 13th Age. Of course my group has played games outside of D&D... but D&D is always that game we eventually come back too, even 4e got numerous tries with my group. I think D&D (love or hate whatever the current edition is) works almost like a lingua franca in our hobby, you can always find people talking about it, modifying it, creating for it, etc. and thus as long as you are familiar with it, you will always be able to interact with other people in the hobby (even on a hiatus from actually gaming) as long as you are up to date on D&D, that's a powerful force to counteract.
