Message: <blockquote data-quote="jmucchiello" data-source="post: 478106" data-attributes="member: 813">2nd ed had just as much fanfare. I think you have to be careful with the Internet effect. You may assume that just because many ENWorlders have experienced Sunless Citadel and other adventure path modules that many other people will as well. I doubt that. My adventure group tried to do the adventure path. We gave up doing Sunless Citadel because it just didn't work for us. We'll never return to the other modules. We have no desire to run a 4-14 level mega adventure like Return to temple of evil. I don't think they will be classics.10 years from now, there will talk of a 4th edition. 10 years after that there will be talk of a 5th edition. Will WotC (or whoever) really create a 25th anniversary "Return to the sunless citadel"? Who will be nostalgic about 3rd ed modules when 5th ed is just around the corner 25 years from now.I'll stand behind my first response. Nothing. For every "old timer" who says "Forge of Fury! That was a dungeon crawl. They don't make 'em like that anymore." There will be an even older "old timer" saying "Bah, There'll never be anything as good as Tomb of Horrors or White Plume Mountain. Forge of Fury's got Troglodytes and dwarves. Bah. Where's the giants, kua toa, drow, driders and spider goddesses of old?!? Now it's ecology this and social order that. Can you believe that a 5th edition monster has 10 lines of stats with no numbers in them before we find out it's attitude toward adventures and puppies? Hit dice are like a footnote in the monster description."</blockquote>
