I started D&D with the launch of 3.0, but I found it not quite to my liking in terms of doing the sort of fantasy that I wanted. With not much experience in TTRPGs, I basically stayed within the OGL sphere: e.g., Arcana Unearthed/Evolved, Blue Rose, and True20.
I came back for 4e D&D, which I found solved a number of my issues with 3e. However, the Edition Wars made it difficult to find a group, and all the toxic vitriole directed towards 4e D&D left me pretty sore about the D&D Community, so I kinda walked away for a time. I did come back (sorta) to PF1 as this is what my group of friends in California wanted to play, but I wasn't too thrilled since it didn't really solve my issues with 3e.
5e D&D dropped. It was interesting and exciting. I played a bit in California and then Vienna when I moved. However, it quickly grew stale. It was around this time that I started venturing further out of the d20 sphere, looking at indie games like Cypher System, Fate, Dungeon World, etc. and eventually OSR games. But D&D 5e? It just doesn't really scratch my itches in a satisfying way. Now that One D&D is promising more of the same, it's less likely that I will continue forward with Official D&D.
