A note on 4th edition.

I was playing Fourth Edition of Dungeons and Dragons tonight with my best friend, his brothers and our other friend from high school. I had not played until tonight. I must say it completely needed to be done! Not only to get out and do something different, but to see how it worked!

I have not gamed like that since High school? It was nice to come back to. The adventure was a bit awkward, but it was fun to play something completely unfamiliar to me. It's been a long time since I played a first level character and didn't know it through and through. They simplified everything so much! The elegance of the game design! I can see why old schoolers have issue with it, but man if you are a newbie this game is smooth... especially if you set your character up using the computer tools they have on the website. I need to play a bit more to figure out It's true depth, but it felt like old times.

  1. Yea they got me... *sigh* I still like 3rd ed better and it's not D&D, but it's still pretty cool.
