I understand if you don't want to give money to GG in the current situation, but I can recommend giving the game a try at a convention. It's really a lot of fun.Otherwise: if you want something that's really close to old-school D&D, maybe have a look at Necrotic Gnome's Dolmenwood stuff and/or their Old-School Essentials line - it's effectively B/X with a few house rules, but the Dolmenwood setting is great and they also have a number of good adventures (caveat: Exalted Funeral, who are doing the fulfillment for the Dolmenwood Kickstarter are currently struggling a bit to get the printed books delivered). And if you want something that is a bit closer to 5e, but still has an old-school feel, have a look at Shadowdark. You'll find a thread here on the board where people will be able to give you more details.</blockquote>
