[QUOTE="Ourph, post: 3711244, member: 20239"] The other games I've been interested in which have come out with new editions have struck me in different ways. I loved the 1981 B/X Moldvay/Cook version of D&D from the start and was never interested in the later Mentzer versions. The artwork, organization and general presentation just didn't attract me so I ignored them. With WFRP, I had reservations about the new edition, but gave it a look and liked a lot of what I saw. Since the old version had been OOP for some years and hadn't been updated since originally published ca. 1986 I didn't have a problem with a new version, though I still use lots of stuff from v1 that I prefer over the "new take". Overall, though, I ended up liking the new edition better. With the AD&D/3e relationship, I've always viewed 3e as essentially a new game, rather than a later edition of AD&D. The publication of 3e didn't affect me any more than the publication of any other new FRP game. I eventually found it wasn't to my taste and played other games that I found to be more fun. With 4e I'm mostly unconcerned. I'm happy with the repertoire of games I play now and I doubt I'll be looking to try anything new in that particular genre for a long time. [/QUOTE]
