[QUOTE="ShinHakkaider, post: 9353913, member: 9213"] [HEADING=2]When did you leave D&D? [/HEADING] I left D&D during 4E. I was part of a playtest for 4E here in NYC. Didnt care for it but still picked up the finished product and ran a few games on my own and found that I REALLY did not like the direction or feel of the game. Eventually I traded in all of my 4e stuff at that point (which was only the 3 core books) to Noble Knight Games and never looked back. I'd been playing and supporting with my dollars some form of D&D since I started playing in 1982. [HEADING=2]Why? [/HEADING] Didnt like the marketing for the transition from 3.5 to 4E. Did not like how 4E played as a TTRPG. Ironically I enjoyed (and still own) three of the 4E based boardgames that were released during that time. SO for. boardgames? YES. For TTRPG? NO.
