Re: What's new?
True. Gygax left TSR in 1985. AD&D2Ed came out in 1987. AND RUINED THE GAME!
I'll take 3.5 or Pathfinder over 2E any day, but 2nd edition was a huge relief. It incorporated a lot of features that 1E and Basic had been missing, like skills, which turned too many of my gaming sessions into rules lawyer feuds.
