[QUOTE="SpiderMonkey, post: 3323124, member: 11385"] I started on the Moldvay Basic and Expert boxed sets as a kid, and went to AD&D by way of 2E when it first came out. It was...weird. Don't get me wrong, I did love it, but it never quite captured the sense of...possiblity...that OD&D did, nor the "danger" that I felt when looking through the 1e books (or the time I actually got to play it). It did what it needed to do, but I was pretty much through with RPGs until I discovered Vampire (right when V:tM 2e came out). Funnily enough, right when I was getting burned out on White Wolf, 3rd Ed. was announced. WotC put out a small rules addendum to add some 3rd ed feel to your 2e game. It was awesome. My players and I dove into the most fun we'd had RPing in a long time. 3rd Ed brought that feeling of newness and wonder back. While some posters have mentioned "3rd ed rules, 1st ed feel," I've tried to get that, but with the "2e" epic feel. Each edition has its awesomeness. It's just a matter of finding it. [/QUOTE]
