At home I run Fantasy Craft

Is there a good review or article, or thread or blogpost or some kind of analysis that describes FantasyCraft and how it differs from "regular" d20 D&D in some more detail? I've always been interested in seeing it if so, but my Google-fu appears to be weak.

We're playing Castles & Crusades since shortly after it was released. It's a nice AD&D retro clone with some interesting twists and we plan to continue playing it. But 5e could eventually pull us over once it is released given from what I saw so far.

Seconded.

I play Pathfinder for my regular local group game. I run a Dungeon Crawl Classics RPG game on Google+.

The most interesting thing o me about the results of this poll -- assuming they reflect in general a broader trend -- is how close the top 3 are. If the numbers are to be believed, there is basically a 3 way "tie" at the tables (sales notwithstanding): 3.5, Pathfinder and 4E. I think we all knew 4E and PF were neck and neck over the past year or two, but I for one was very surprised at the not inured popularity of 3.5.

1E play is pretty strong too. It kind of bolsters the idea that WotC could o worse than supporting all editions of D&D (thy could probably get away with a singular AD&D line and a singular Basic line, since 1E and 2E and B/X and BECMI, respectively, aren't that different. What o do about 0D&D...

Actual I'm not to surprised by this. There is still plenty of 3.5 books around and the rules are up for free on the internet. Add in there is still some 3pp making new stuff for 3.5 and that Pathfinder stuff can be used with 3.5 especially adventures with little work and you get a game that while not in "print" is still getting support.

With the obvious caveat on the limitations of these sorts of polls, I think it is accurate in this respect, and I'm not surprised.

PF set the goal of backwards compatibility (as have various other d20 offshoots), meaning that it is not hard to play a game that is 3.5 at its core but has new material. I suspect many of the voters use an updated version of 3.5.

More fundamentally, 3.5 is still the definitive version of D&D. PF is a minor upgrade at best, and 4e is 4e. Like the man said, the OGL will ensure that no company can kill D&D, and despite WotC's efforts to do so and Paizo's efforts to take over the market with a new brand, neither of them has killed D&D. I'd say that's very good news.
