Now that 4e is out, are you into it or sticking with a prior edition?

[QUOTE="AdmundfortGeographer, post: 4297502, member: 4682"] [b]I am hesitant, but just not sure what I'm going to do[/b] I guess I'm moving forward into 4e. I'm not at all pleased about it, in fact I'm probably going kicking and screaming. I am still bitter that Living Greyhawk was killed. I am still bitter that Dragon and Dungeon were killed and rolled into a online service that is mostly crippled for me (I'm a Mac user). Maybe I'm a creatively stunted person, but the inventive names given to feats and powers just turn me off. I'm finding I wished I had sold off all of my thousands of dollars worth of 3.x stuff back when 4e was announced because right now I'm so disillusioned with D&D that some days I want to wash my hands of all version of my hobby. It bothers me a little because my son was just now getting to the age where I wanted to start bringing him in to the D&D fold. For months he has been pestering me to play some D&D but I told him we would wait until June when the next edition would come out and we could learn it together. I'm hoping it's just a passing phase and when Living FR finally arrives I'll be in a better mood, I'l have absorbed the new realities of this entirely new game, but right now I think I'd much rather pull out my old, classic Battletech collection to play with my son than this new release of D&D. As an aside, I appreciate the work put in to these rules. I can tell they were a significant work of passion, but if there is anything that makes me thing I wasted my money on these books is that dozens and dozens of pages in the 4e books are smearing like it was printed by an ink jet printer. Unbelievable. When I do get to role playing again I know it will be 4e, but I won't be enthused about the rules, because I just don't have other options right now. My role playing is pretty much restricted to RPGA games due to my irregular schedule and life-realities. [/QUOTE]
