[QUOTE="der_kluge, post: 9351054, member: 945"] I took a large hiatus (real life) from gaming after 4e came out. I never made the switch to PF, though liked what I had seen of it. When I started my in-person game back up I briefly debated whether I wanted to use PF or 5e rules, and I opted for 5e because it just had far fewer books. I basically started running 5e without even having read any of those books, and we learned it as I went - and found it fairly straightforward. Although I really hate some of the rules are just buried in paragraphs of text. I just finished a 16-month long campaign, and am building a campaign set in Ravenloft. I wanted something grittier, and wasn't sure 5e was going to give me the right vibe for that. So, I'm switching to Low Fantasy Gaming (LFG). It's not a huge leap from 5e rules-wise, but is simpler. I haven't ran it yet, so who knows, maybe I'll hate it. Unlikely - it seems pretty easy to fix stuff if I want to. I'm also switching systems because I hate WoTC. So, I guess the answer to your question is - I'm currently leaving 5e. :) [/QUOTE]
