Played AD&D from its very start pretty much to its end and beyond. 2e seemed more like 1.25 to me. Actually it isn't so much that I think Mike likes 1e (I guess) more than 4e as he seems less than comfortable with pre-Essentials 4e. I get the distinct impression that in essence WotC sees 'classic' 4e as a bit of a brick tied around their necks at this point and would sort of like to pretend it never happened. I can kind of sympathize in a way, it would be a lot easier to just go forward and work things out from the spot Essentials is at now without reference to what came before. But they have a lot of SKUs in stock and a lot of fans of the original game holding them back. Not that I share that sentiment myself, but there it is.And yeah, the whole "we're all basically in this RPG thing together" is nice. I agree. There are just times when it seems like we classic 4e fans are almost patronizing a game that wants to be forgotten. It is a bit weird.</blockquote>
