[QUOTE="MGibster, post: 8317974, member: 4534"] I typically adopt the new edition of the game. In 1989-1990 I started purchasing AD&D 2nd edition because those were the books that were most available and I actually had a little bit of purchasing power as a teen. I switched to D&D 3.0 in 2000 because I thought it was a better system but I skipped 3.5 because I didn't feel they made enough improvements to warrant purchasing the core books again. I did not care one bit for 4.0 so I didn't make the plunge. The only game I can recall having regret over purchasing the new edition was Legend of the Five Rings 2nd edition. And, honestly, it's been so long that I can't remember specifically what I found disappointing but I just stuck with 1st edition. I remember switching to WEG's 2nd edition of Star Wars even though I had plenty of 1st edition books and had no big problems with the rules. I don't consider WotC's d20 Star Wars to be a different edition of the game. It's a totally different game even if it's based off the same source material. There's a good chance I'll buy 6th edition D&D and I'd rather it was released sooner than later. I would like [I]all[/I] the books to reflect the changes they've made to ability score increases, race/lingeage, or whatever. [/QUOTE]
