I looked forward to every change, because I felt the pain points of the late-stage of each of those editions, and was happy to try something new.I hated aspects of 2E (THAC0 and Saving throws and race limitations were nonsense.) I looked forward to the streamlining of 3E (loved the narrative sense of the 3 saving throws, for instance). Then, over time, 3E became a nightmarish, tangled, unbalanced, mess. So when 4E came along I was looking forward to a new interpretation. I enjoyed the stories told, the ideas and concepts that were introduced, and it expanded my horizons. But I was feeling the deep pain points with 4E by the time we hit Paragon tier, and we played 2 campaigns to complete Epic Destinies). The bloat and monotony was inescapable. And when I left 4E to play 5E, I loved 5E. And still love it.I am glad that the 2024 books are just a tune-up. I'm staying with 5E, and will use all my older edition books as inspiration to develop content for my 5E games.</blockquote>
