D&D General What version of D&D are you playing?

Grief! I thought our inflation was bad!

Our inflation was pretty bad, but I also live in one of the most expensive cities in one of the most expensive states in one of the most expensive countries. That certainly does not help things.

DND wise: 5E(2014)+ToV+5E(2024)

Older DND Edition Wise: OSE+Dolmenwood+B/X compatibility. (I want to do 2E via For Gold and Glory while adding in the Historical Book supplement and stuff like Book of The Elves).

OSR: Currently DMing an ongoing Mork Borg "campaign" for the weekly Thursday Game Nights. So far, everybody is having a blast with it.

Pulled up the menu for maybe our best not-super-formal but still very nice restaurants in Columbia, SC. Appetizers are $12-19, main courses $25-$46, soup and salad $6-$12, and dessert $9.

I think dinner with salad and soft drink at our casual neighborhood Greek/Italian place has probably been averaging around $20 a person.

Habitual bagel place is about $13.50 for a sausage, egg, and cheese on bagel; fruit salad; and soft-drink or tea.

McDonald's wanted something over $6 for a cheeseburger and soft-drink yesterday on the way home from work. After they took a while to realize I was there, misheard my tea order and didn't stick on long enough for me to correct it to unsweet, and then took several minutes with the car in front of me at the register (at one point I told myself they had 3 minutes when I noticed they were slow - apparently they don't keep change at the window?) so I just drove off. If they aren't fast or cheap I'm not sure what purpose they serve.

Your appetizers are about same price as our mains. They're usually $12-18 unless you're fine dining or steak.

Guy sent me a menu for Indian curries in WV. It cost him $70 or so for 3.

Local places here is $30 for two including drinks and a naan.

Cheeseburger in a brioche bun is $6 at our D&D spot.

I was about to say, "my own custom version that arguably may not be D&D anymore" but then I remembered that of course I'm also in a Tyranny of Dragons game. My character's a 5e character, but the GM has explicitly allowed us to use anything from 5.5 from D&D Beyond that we want. Given that I haven't even read the 5e PHB yet, I'm not really interested in moving on yet. I don't know what you call that, but I picked 5e since that's what my character is, at least. I know some of the other characters have updated their mechanics to 5.5.

Please find your way back to the thread topic. Thanks.

I just got into the TTRPG hobby this year. I wanted to stick with D&D 2024, but the people I'm currently playing with are strictly using the 2014 ruleset.

Our long-running 5E (2014) campaign wrapped up over the summer.

The DM is an old-school guy at heart. He thought D&D 2014 already made PCs too powerful, so I don’t think there was ever a chance he’d run the 2024 rules.

The new campaign is 1E (OSRIC), with 1.5E weapon proficiency rules.

He also allowed me to play a 2E bard. Basically, my pitch was, “I would like to play a bard, but I would like to play a play a bard without playing 11 levels of something else entirely before I get to play a bard.”

Not answering the poll as I'm not playing any game right now. I'd love to play OG 5e, 3.5, 2e, or 4e.

If jury-rigging everything together gets to be a pain for him, it sounds like OSE Advanced Fantasy would make your group very happy.

I just had a very nice Indian meal for 2 for £66 ($88) including tip. Not in London though.
