[QUOTE="innerdude, post: 9217796, member: 85870"] I utterly abandoned D&D and everything even remotely resembling the D20 system, including Pathfinder, somewhere around 2012. I haven't owned a D20-based rule system in hard cover since 2016 or 2017. (Obviously no reason to get rid of PDFs, even if I'll never run the system.) I'll play anything that someone is willing to run. I've played 5e and PF2 in the past year (albeit very short stints). I even backed [I]Level Up [/I]at the PDF level, just to have something to use if I wanted to play 5e or adjacent. But I'll never GM a D20 game again in my lifetime, barring some radically unforeseen circumstance. I've seen too much. I've experienced so much richer fruit than D&D ever offered or provided. Going back to D&D is now literally just that, [I]going backward[/I]. It's "old tech." It's Geocities, circa 1996. I've also sort of let Savage Worlds cool off to the side for a bit. Had an amazing 9-year run with it, but was ready for something different. I'm certain I'll play and GM it again, though, just maybe not for a couple more years. [/QUOTE]
