[QUOTE="Audiomancer, post: 8686679, member: 6881997"] After playing B/X and 1st Edition from 1982 to 1989, I stopped playing RPGs altogether. Partly because I didn’t feel like re-buying rulebooks for 2nd Edition, but mostly because my gaming group scattered to the winds when we hit college. Fast-forward to 2014, when I started seeing articles online about how a new edition of D&D was coming out, and it looked pretty good. I ordered the PHB on a whim and liked it, so I ordered the MM and some dice, then the DMG when that came out. I didn’t actually find a table to play at until 2016, and that group broke up after about a year and a half. I finally switched over to online play earlier this year. *I remember being tempted by the 4th Edition rulebooks a few years earlier when I saw them at a chain bookstore (remember those?) But at the time, the $120 price tag was more than I felt like spending on a lark. The next time I made my way to the store, the number of rulebooks had jumped from three to six, and I lost interest.
