We have been playing ad&d 1st edition/OSRIC since summer 2025, some of the players have played it last in 1989. The idea was mostly from myself (DM), but I managed to lure the players in. The starting idea was not a momentary nostalgia, but to see if ad&d would be a workable system for a longer campaign.I think there are a lot of positives in the older system, which have been lost with the editions. And of course, the system is old and it does show in the game design. What I went looking for is a sense of danger for the players, clear roles in the game for character classes - xp from treasures, not much from combat - which will certainly guide the characters' actions in the world. Character arc zero to hero, not hero to demigod as in 5E.I am also playing in 5E -campaign and it is great, systems are just different.</blockquote>
