[QUOTE="Evil Eli, post: 1460005, member: 14784"] I did not start hating D20 or the New D&D, in fact when WOTC got the rights to it I had high hopes that they could save the game. I bought all the hardbacks and played the new D&D for over a year. I played 3.0 D&D and while fun at first I never really enjoyed it especially at higher levels. I found that it was far too to easy to min/max with character creation. But my beginning dislike for D20 when I DMed it for a couple of months. There where six PC's, 5 NPC's, with an average level of 7th to 9th. After the first combat session in which the party slaughtered the main "recurring" Villian and all of his bodyguards in 5 rounds of combat that lasted 2 and 1/2 hours. I struggled to find stuff for ther party to as they basically super hero's. I really perfered BD&D like the red and blue box or the RC. Hardcore D20 fanboys use to give me a lot of "crap" because of this. When I would talk with these people I would literal be verbal attacked for liking a what they callled a "Out-dated inferior game that any one with a lick of sense would not bother play. They would then go and a exhort the vitures of the OGL and how all of these third party companies where putting out "great product", Then I would listen to their triades about how much more superior D20 D&D was over all the other systems. That is when my real Hat for 3.x D&D began, the release of 3.5 pretty much killed any chance of me ever playing D20 D&D again. [I]On side note I found it interesting that at my FLGS the owner had to mark down over 200 D20 compaitble supplements and books because they just weren't selling. He claims that the market is saturated and people just are not buying like they use to.[/I] [/QUOTE]
