[QUOTE="Enevhar Aldarion, post: 7960549, member: 6818233"] First D&D product I bought was the Basic(Red?) box in 1981, but everyone was playing 1st Ed AD&D, so I tossed the box and bought the books and played 1st, and then 2nd, or a combo of the two, for the next 15 years. I didn't really do much at all with 3rd until the 3.5 books were released, but the game had become too complex for my tastes and I did not play much of 3.5. And then came 4th, which I did not like at all from the previews and avoided that edition completely. Tried Pathfinder for a while, but still too complex for the time I had available to put into it. Then 5th finally came along and I started playing D&D again. I will take 1st/2nd and 5th pretty equally, but probably 5th, just because of the ease of finding players for it. But if I were to get together with gamers with experience across the editions, I would go with the one I played the most, 1st/2nd Ed AD&D. [/QUOTE]
