[QUOTE="Belegbeth, post: 1453718, member: 17228"] Huh?! The rules do NOT merely arbitrate pc adventuring. They include plenty of "macro" elements like how expensive magic items and spells are, how common high level NPCs are in towns and cities of differing sizes, etc. Most players -- NOT ALL (including me) -- will tend (not always!) to play games in accordance with these rules. The result? Campaigns which have pretty common magic items, high level NPCs, etc. Campaigns very different than those produced by 1E rules. I guess you chose to ignore my earlier point that I was describing the kinds of campaigns GENERALLY produced by the different rules editions. Again, I think rule variants, etc. are wonderful. I use them all the time. But I was merely indicating that -- given the fact that most campaigns will generally try to adhere to the rules as published -- the kinds of campaigns produced by 3E rules will tend to be different than the kinds of campaigns produced by 1E rules. Of course to actually READ what I state would prevent you from having the petty pleasure of calling my points "moronic." [/QUOTE]
