Scotley's 4e Swashbuckler OOC

I always think there is room for a better system. IMHO, each rules edition of D&D were superior to the last.

The play your edition your way vibe sounds good, but details on how they are going to pull it off are still a ways off. I have my doubts that such a thing is possible, but I do think there is room for a better system than we have now. I'm cautiously optimistic.

Yeah, I agree, especially if they're talking about different players playing different editions during the same game. What a C.F.!

I'm not sure I agree with you, there, Dad. 4E is good, but 3.5 E is awfully good, too.

3.5 is good and easier adaptable, but get awfully complicated and detailed (and not always in a good way) quickly. This is at least my taste YMMV.

Admittedly, there were a few problems with 3.5. Pathfinder claims to have fixed many of those without the need for a top-to-bottom re-write. Did they do so? Dunno, all I can say is that I like Pathfinder.

Did WotC go too far with 4E? Dunno, all I can say is that I like 4E.

 

[Walking Dad]

I can wholeheartedly agree with this.

For other great fantasy d20 iterations, have you taken a look at Legend?

You can get it from the link below (it is free till the 14th, but there is a donation suggested for a good cause):

Every game system has its own advantages and disadvantages. But I did like how adaptable and easily modified the d20 system was.

Why the past tense? I happen to know you are playing Pathfinder.

You know, I really like the incarnations of d20 in True20 and Mutants & Masterminds. Very adaptable and very streamlined (at least in my opinion).

Agreed. I enjoyed very much the Babylon5 d20 game I got to play in for a few months. The d20 engine is a very versatile critter! I have some other d20 games like at least one True 20 book, one Mutants & Masterminds, and a small pile of Star Wars d20, but I've never actually played any of them.

The classic quandary of the aging gamer--so many games, so little time...
