Some...Eric, I'll have to take your word for it. Some times I miss a good paper and dice RPG, but then I realize that I don't have the time to fully devote to it. And finding a good group is necessary.<br /><br />My last experience wasn't so good. There was too much, "we need to contemplate this, if I use this angle and lean over this way can I see…" Me: "Is his head within sword reach? Good, I chop it off."<br /><br />Although I've really wanted to try some of the electronic versions. I hear Neverwinter Nights is a good approximation. I just haven't had the money or the time, yet.Steve Buchheithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12999709767641212586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19111384.post-59087080479712887542012-01-09T16:09:58.759-05:002012-01-09T16:09:58.759-05:00Based on what I've been able to make out about...Based on what I've been able to make out about Fourth Edition without actually playing it, I think my Fifth Edition feedback for WOTC would consist of two words, the first of which will get you an "R" from the MPAA. 3.x was a damn good gaming system that solidly built upon the foundations of earlier editions. Maybe not the best system, and it certainly had its bugs (and some unwieldiness thanks to expansions), but very playable and reasonably intuitive (especially when compared to 1E, which I loved--I skipped 2E altogether--but, bless its heart, that was one cobbled-together and jury-rigged system even without house rules).<br /><br />I hear really good things about <a href="http://paizo.com/pathfinder" rel="nofollow">Pathfinder</a>, which seems to be the <i>"real"</i> 4.0 (or I think it's been dubbed "3.75" in some quarters, which is still a fine compliment).Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18275812152895151542noreply@blogger.com
