[QUOTE="Erdric Dragin, post: 8317687, member: 6785197"] I only play new if I can still use the old. I moved to 3E from 2E because it was better mechanically, but 1e/2e still has so much material I can use in 3e. However, WotC don't write books like they used to (well, when it was TSR that is) and so it's becoming harder and harder to move to a new edition. I moved from 3e to Pathfinder 1e and actually mix the two, because Pathfinder did what all TTRPGs should do; backwards compatibility. I was still able to port easily, or mix, or use as is, any of the 3e material with Pathfinder. And look how great it did by doing that! Alas, Paizo went to the Darkside and abandoned PF1e for their crap PF2e that isn't as popular at all and isn't even Pathfinder, just some new 5e-wanna-be-with-extra-complexity kind of game with the Pathfinder in name only. 5e is too heavily watered down. Not the right D&D, it's a D&D flavored zero-calorie refreshment that loses its novelty quickly before realizing we should have the original Coke again...maybe with the original coke in it too LOL But it appeals to the masses which is what this game is all about now: Money. I miss when Money wasn't a thing with D&D. When it was just the game made by real gamers and not suits. I'll forever stick to my 3.5e/PF system. Nothing better really. [/QUOTE]
