[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 9866570, member: 19675"] 3.5Ed- and its 3.X progeny- quickly became and remain my favorite iteration of D&D. The enormous variety of character options was key to that. Before it, I’d played D&D since 1977-78, in multiple cities in CO, KS and TX, and with more groups than I can remember. I won’t exaggerate and say I played EVERY race & class combo in the prior editions, but I definitely tried most of the stereotypes and some others besides. (Especially when 2Ed’s Player’s Options & the softcover books were released.) While I played several iconic legacy builds from past editions in 3.5Ed, it let me try characters that simply weren’t possible before, doing things that weren’t possible before. After a certain point, I barely played a PC that would be easily retrofitted into one of the older iterations. 4Ed opened up a few concepts that weren’t easily modeled in 3.5Ed, but largely seemed more restrictive than it (or 2Ed PO) was. Still, [I]some[/I] things were definitely improved, IMHO, like the Warlock class. [/QUOTE]
