Message: <blockquote data-quote="Velderan" data-source="post: 9351801" data-attributes="member: 7038056">For me there has never been a time where I've said I'm completely done with D&D. I played BECMI briefly with my cousins when I was a kid and we just kind of moved on to other things as they caught our interest. For a while, it was the Palladium TMNT game because we were into TMNT. In the early 90s, it became the TSR FASERIP Marvel game because we were into comics. Around 1993, I got back into D&D with 2e and some high school friends playing games set in Dragonlance. We also played other games (Shadowrun 2e and TSR Marvel), but eventually stopped playing TTRPGs after high school as people drifted apart for college and such. In my early 20s, I joined the Army and worked in the Signal Corps. If you're not familiar, it's where the Army keeps most of its nerds so I was briefly able to play D&D 3e but walked away because of a really awful DM (short story is having PCs threatened with rape was funny to him). Fast forward 6 years and 2 moves, I tried to get into PF1e but my work schedule never aligned with any games I could join so I was back out of the hobby.In 2016 I was out of the Army and moved back home to Minnesota where a few of my old high school friends were playing in a 5e Curse of Strahd campaign so I joined their game. It was fun, but they only played once every 4-6 weeks and so I started looking for a way to play more frequently. I ended up DMing for a different group of friends weekly, which was great but over time I started getting dissatisfied with 5e from a DM's perspective. I started looking into other games around the time of the OGL situation and PF2e seemed to check a lot of blocks for what I was looking for. We ended up switching and have been having fun playing that for just over a year now. We also started playing Call of Cthulhu one shots every couple months which has been a lot of fun.</blockquote>
