[QUOTE="Captain Eru, post: 4053863, member: 60289"] I started with Second Edition, but never really got into it. I played mostly because friends of mine played it, but never picked up miniatures, painting, or buying massive amounts of supplements. I moved halfway around the world, and pretty much gave up gaming for a while. I was finally reintroduced, to my everlasting scorn, and got heavy into BattleTech. But I got into it as the game was dying. It’s still on life support, some ten years later. I’ve been at times a moderator at their official website, and contributed to Field Manuals. From there, I was reintroduced to Third Edition, and found it to be a vast improvement. It’s funny, but when I was just a kid, I found Second Edition overly simplistic, and now I long for those days with a different roll because of fluctuating modifiers every round. I had high hopes for 3.5, but it failed to live up to its billing. I also wasn’t too keen on having to buy three new Core Rulebooks after just three years. I’ve done my globetrotting, played some games in far off locales, but since I’ve come home, I haven’t been able to find a steady group. From what I’ve heard of Fourth Edition, it seems like it’s going to fix what I had issues with, and keep what I liked. I may be setting myself up for a fall, but if Star Wars Roleplaying Game: Saga Edition is any indication, it’s going to be sweet. And even while it’s only been five years since 3.5 came out, I’m ready to shell out some more cash, providing it’s worth it. [/QUOTE]
