Sure, you still have different D&D settings, but when you see some of the other products that have been released over the years (Wheel of Time, Star Wars, d20 Modern...) I think that it's easier for me to sort out the rules from the setting.<br /><br />And, ultimately, I think this viewpoint is why I don't feel the same about the new edition as the people who complain so much (stil1!). They both play differently and I think that my preference for one over the other comes according to what style of game I'ld like to be playing at the time rather than "I'm playing D&D therefore I *must* play with rules system X." In fact, I would love to play a Star Wars game using Fate rules out of Spirit of the Century--even though the rules weren't designed for that setting.<br /><br />The core and strength of D&D has always been it's community, even when it's as small as the group you play with. Imagination rules the day and I'll use whatever fits to make the game fun for my fellow players. If that means using other mechanics as well as ideas/plots, then so be it. When the player's are in the zone, they don't mind!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
