Is it DnD, or MtG? (General Griping)

Well, if it's just you and your pals in the basement, you can play however you want. The situation is totally different in organized play however. I wonder what impact the complete books are having on those playing in LG?

I think this provides the closest parallel to Magic, casual vs. tournament play.

Forgive the ignorance, but what is LG?

Yawn. It's starting to get to where you can't tell what thread you're in.

There's always someone whining about there being books that they don't want that other people buy.

Hmmm. Sounds like the moral majority, eh?

I find it unfortunate that someone urinated in your Cheerios this morning. I am very happy you are spreading that love right now.

The guy has an opinion and he chose to express it. I am pretty sure he was not looking for you to pick on him about it. While I am all for the intelligent discussion of somone's ideas you were warned and it seems you care very little about that warning. Let the guy express his opinion and let others debate it, don't beat on someone because a bee flew up your butt or something.

Well, it's either Laughing Gnomes, Lawful Good, or Living Greyhawk.

Given the context, I'd say it's either the first or the last. ;)
:p

Living Greyhawk. No need to forgive your ignorance Storyteller01, I should have spelled it out.

3rd Edition Won Me Over!

AD&D 2nd edition soured me on D&D completely. I stopped playing D&D for a long time and was convinced that level based games with character classes were the problem. Vampire: the Masquerade was my game of choice; I enjoyed it and I thought that Vampire's point buy character creation/leveling system was the solution.

I was wrong. The problem had nothing to do with level based characters versus point buy characters. The problem was that I didn't like AD&D and I didn't like the (IMO) few character options. D&D (3rd edition) brought me back to D&D and keeps me into roleplaying because I am excited that no matter what character concept I'd like to portray there is an easy way to do it in a unique way.

D&D is better than point buy systems, I've become convinced, because character classes are somewhat limiting and unlimited choices hinder my ability to figure out what (obscure) archetype my character embodies.
 



Tell you what. He/you can express your opinions, and I can express mine. DOH!

This just in...

Pawtucket, RI (AP)

Game manufacturer Hasbro (TM) today announced a change in its marketing for its Dungeons and Dragons (TM) line of games. CEO Alan G. Hassenfeld spoke of the new plan at a press conference.

"We are proud to announce our new 'You'll Play It Our Way Or Else' promotion for Dungeons and Dragons (TM). For too long we have allowed people to pick and choose what Prestige Classes, Feats, spells, etc. to include in their games.

So, in order to increase sales of our 'optional' books such as Frostburn and Complete Arcane, we are hiring 20,000 new employees into our 'Enforcement' division. These men and women will be responsible for tracking down anyone playing Dungeons and Dragons (TM), and... encouraging them to buy all the supplements, adventures, etc. that we put out, and, more importantly, making sure they use them in their games.

No one will be allowed to play 'their way' any longer. It is now 'Our Way, or the Highway!' Thank you."

Shares of Hasbro rose 10% after the announcment.

:lol:
