[QUOTE="Desdichado, post: 5013681, member: 2205"] Like it. A lot. The modular nature of it, especially as more and more OGL got released, really appealed to the tinkerer in me. I can do anything I want to with the game engine and still predict how well it will work (I never grokked at all even a tiny bit the complaint that everything was so "tightly interwoven" that you couldn't change something without worrying about unintended consequences of that change somewhere else. I routinely changed all kinds of things about the game. I mean, [I]all the freakin' time.[/I] Literally every single game I ran. Ahem. Anyway.) It wasn't perfect, but it worked pretty darn well. I had fixes for my pet issues, so that they didn't bother me, and what more could I want from it? I never even bothered with 4e. If I had what I wanted, what was 4e going to offer me other than a brand new hit to my gaming budget that I really didn't need? Plus, 4e took a few of the things that I didn't really like about 3e and actually expanded on them; if anything, it went the wrong way in a lot of aspects. [/QUOTE]
