I just started a new D&D campaign on June 7th!!

The game is with Revised 3rd Edition rules though.

I guess that sums up my voted.

For our Pathfinder "Rise of the Runelords" game, we'll finish out 3.5. But going forward, it's 4e all the way. Too many fixes to the system for us to ignore, especially at higher level play. Patches to fix things that we were missing, like not relegating some characters to spectators during combats and a faster system overall.
 

Our 3.5/AE/DM Fiat campaign --which is either called "The Chronicle of Burne and Some Others of Lesser Importance" or "More Tales of CITY"-- will continue until I just can't run it anymore. Everyone's currently 13th level. An endgame scenario is just starting to develop, but who knows when or if we'll get there (I hope we do, said looks like it'll involve storming Heaven in a knock-off TARDIS, a mystical Real Doll, time travel, the Omega Point, and one PC potentially fighting his future self who's the BBEG).

In addition to that, my friend who plays Burne is planning a 4e campaign in a new homebrew this fall, and sometime after that, I'll run a 4e game in my old homebrew CITY.

If a group I knew and trusted to have fun with was playing 4e and offered a fun sounding game of it, I'd consider it.

But anything offered or prompted by me in the fantasy domain in the near future is likely to be 3.5, Pathfinder, of FantasyCraft.
 


I'm sticking with 3.5 Edition. Indefinitely.

My decision has little to do with my financial means, or the sway of popular opinion, or any of those "my game can beat up your game" arguments on the Internets. The bottom line is, I don't feel like learning a new game system. I'm one of those rare, believed-to-be-extinct gamers who remains perfectly happy with 3.5 Edition.

Perhaps the day will come when 3.5E no longer works for me and my group. But until then, I'm good.
 


Voted "sticking with 3.5" though we are actually playtesting a lot of Pathfinder rules in our current Red Hand of Doom campaign. At any rate, 3.5/Pathfinder/ or some combo thereof is likely the way we're going. I'd love to try 4e in a one-shot or something but at this point the odds of me becoming a full convert are next to nil.
