I moved to a different city a few years after 2e came out. I never thought I’d play 2e or any form of D&D again at the time. I didn’t know anyone who wanted to play D&D either. It stayed that way for several years.When I reconnected with my old group in my home city—shortly before the 3e release—I discovered they’d been playing 2e the whole time.Where can we find any reliable data on this stuff?In any case, how many gamers are there who aren’t switching simply because they don’t know or care about a new edition? You don’t have to be disgruntled to never switch.</blockquote>
