Some stuff I don't enjoy too much, but overall it's the best.I think Nifft summed it up well. If you're pining for a return to the "spirit" of old D&D (or another equally vague and subjective term), you're most likely just yearning for a return to your youth. It's called nostalgia, which I think is great in general. It is not, however, the best basis to design a new edition of the world's most popular RPG.</blockquote>
