What is your favorite edition?
Least liked?
Why for either?
Even more interesting I think, favorite and least favorite mechanic from each edition?
Fuck/Marry/Kill

Actual redditor behavior, can't make a negative thread there so you come here to do it.

I mean you're right about posting this on reddit, not only would it be not allowed the any of the D&D subs, but I wouldn't even be able to post this picture to most of them and few that could would violate their rules for posting pics of books.
Also a negative thread on 4chan? Especially on /tg/ of all places? Won't somebody think of the pure and positive fa/tg/uys?

None of them, I have standards.
>Marry
None of them, I have standards
>Kill
All of them. D&D is a cancer on the entire hobby and teaches people the worst habits to approach TTRPGs with.

>Fuck
My life.
>Marr(ied to)
My jobs.
>Kill
Myself.

Their what?
>>
>>96609099
Yeah one of r/DnD has a rule against posting pictures of "purchased products" which in the description includes books and dice
>>
>>96609099
You're honestly surprised that of all places, that one sucks corpo cock like their life depends on it?

I really miss playing ADND2e, but my group moved on from DND and the satellites that haven't are all redditors who want to play 4e and pathfinder, and have strong opinions on the corporate policies of DND so I stay the fuck away from them. Only played 2e as a little cherub so never got to play it with my advanced adult mind, and so barely touched any of the adventures. Maybe one day. It's all mostly nostalgia, I'd probably enjoy a randomly chosen OSR game more in the end, but 2e just hit me different.

I'd fuck 3.5 though, ay bby I don't see it workin out between us but damn

>Kill
Death to 4e and its converts, death to them, death to their families, death to their cattle. The undead edition that keeps coming back to haunt you, and whenever you strike it down it just ends up rising and terrorising your children instead. The adventure writes itself
>Skeleton knight has risen and is threatening the village
>A band of adventurers came by and defeated the evil skeletal knight a generation ago, but it is now back and more powerful than ever, a death knight
>The vile knight Lord Ed the Fourth has plagued these lands for generations, no matter how many times he is rooted out and destroyed he rises again, we believe he has a phylactery somewhere, and you have to put a stop to him once and for all.

Go back.

>Fuck
5e. It's the popular girl and I know I'll have a good enough time but I'll hate myself in the morning.
>Marry
AD&D. Reminds me of my childhood love, B/X, but it's solid enough to deal with the complexities of adult life. Really surprising depths and enough material to last a lifetime by its side.
>Kill
3.5. I swear to God all of you 3.5/PF are fucking retards. Shit game, shit design. Only decent thing to come out of it was the OGL and even then we ended up with utter shit like Call of Cthulhu d20 or d20 Modern.
>>
>Fuck
5e. Its alright, kind of like 4es uglier cousin
>Marry
4e. The best edition of them all
>Kill
All editions pre-3.5. Old boring dungeon crawler slop
>>
>>96609669
Marrying AD&D is based but you really think 5th is better than 3.5? I don't understand.
>>
>>96608861
>3.5
Because it taught the entire millennial generation what DnD „feels“ like.
Aka build crafting , no proper dungeon crawling guidelines and „simulationism“ that is anything but.
And now they think this is what all TTRPGs are.
>>
>>96608861
B/X is IMHO the best edition. Simple, to the point, and captures the essence of what D&D should be.
3.5e is my least favourite because it has way too many cogs which bring the game to a grinding halt. It also REQUIRES a certain type of play. Don't try and tell me that you can play without a grid. That shit is impossible with 3.5e.

4E
5E
It's really really good at fantasy superheroes.
It's dogshit that can't decide what it wants to be and sucks at literally everything I want an RPG system to do.
Paragon paths. Magic items.
Nothing, it's all shit. Advantage/disadvantage.

>Fuck
3E, I like buildfagging. And she's built for SEX
>Marry
4E. Is the most chaste edition.
>Kill
Murder is wrong
