I love 4e, the concept and the design, but I absolutely HATE the way they handled this edition. People keep saying it's like a miniature board game. Like that's a bad thing. I did an experiment where I ran the original DL module with 4th and 3.5 using 2 different groups know what went differently? Absolutely nothing other than slight changes in powers.Everything in the story ran extremely similar regardless of edition.
The 'I HATE THIS LOL WOW EDITION' BS is completely invalid, and I suspect most are parroting stuff they heard from others. If you want to make a comparison to any game it would be Final Fantasy Tactics, Tactics Ogre and those games, and those games are some of the most beloved in the history of RPGs and I'm OK with that.

It is not perfect and I wish they would have phrased some game elements differently, but the game worked really well at my table. The one thing I absolutely hate is that we never got a DM guide 3 for 4e. We will never get one and it really scratches that OCD nerve and gamer in me. The epic levels in the game were so good from the little I played.
Man now I made myself sad again thinking about how awesome a 3rd DM guide would have been focusing on epic level stuff. Sorry for going off topic. I really do love 4e and feel strongly about it. I wish it would have never been associated with the D&D name, it might still be alive with current development.
The Basic Rules for Dungeons & Dragons is a PDF (over 100 pages, in fact) that covers the core of the game. It runs from levels 1 to 20 and covers the cleric, fighter, rogue, and wizard, presenting what we view as the essential subclass for each. It also provides the dwarf, elf, halfling, and human as race options; in addition, the rules contain 120 spells, 5 backgrounds, and character sheets.Part 1 is about creating a character, providing the rules and guidance you need to make the character you’ll play in the game. It includes information on the various races, classes, backgrounds, equipment, and other customization options that you can choose from. Many of the rules in part 1 rely on material in parts 2 and 3.Part 2 details the rules of how to play the game, beyond the basics described in this introduction. That part covers the kinds of die rolls you make to determine success or failure at the tasks your character attempts, and describes the three broad categories of activity in the game: exploration, interaction, and combat.Part 3 is all about magic.
It covers the nature of magic in the worlds of D&D, the rules for spellcasting, and a selection of typical spells available to magic-using characters (and monsters) in the game.No monster stats, but it's not like you can't make up that stuff. And you can have NPC's as enemies. Anyway, free D&D.
Amazon has the Starter Set on pre-order, with an adventure and up to 5th level for $13. (Not sure if the Starter has character generation.).
What version is this? I last played 3.5Thanks!This is for D&D 'Next', the version after 4.0 that's coming out in a few weeks (at least the starter set). From what I hear its a mix of old school D&D (2.0) with helping of 3.5 mixed in. Didn't play in the playtest, so just going by what I've heard people say.It's fundamentally 3.x with a few recognizable things from 4 and some new updates.
I didn't recognize anything from older versions that wasn't also in 3.5 (except the style of flavor text in some sections reminded me of the hardcover AD&D books). I was really hoping they would return to the simpler, lighter, old school days but with some modern rule upgrades. Instead it's like 2nd edition and 3rd edition had a baby. Yeah it's more modern and stream-lined than 3rd edition but it's still more complex and heavy than 2nd edition and this is just the BASIC rules.I downloaded it, flipped through it but I want no part of this. The barrier to playing these games are just so big it's no wonder most kids prefer video games, miniature games or even board games these days.
What version is this? I last played 3.5Thanks!This is 5th edition. Its being called Dungeons & Dragons but it will say 5th edition somewhere.This PDF is 110 pages from the Player's Handbook which will be released in August. The PDF only includes rules for low-level Fighters, Clerics, Rogues and Wizards.
A (Edit: 32 page, even more barebones) print version of this PDF along with some pre-printed character sheets and an adventure is available in a cheap 'starter box set' that is available at 'official D&D Organized play' stores now, and through online retailers on July 15th.It is an attempt to blend the past editions into one that feels good to everyone. Flipping through it, its not awful. It has the lower numbers and a hint of 'players should play smart not just count on their skills/rolls' of the early editions. Some of the versatility of 3rd edition.
With the tighter math of 4th edition. But has excised most of what people hated about 4th edition (which was pretty much all of it) and seems to be trying to dodge the 'math falls apart at higher levels' of 3rd edition. I've played dnd since adnd. 2nd edition was excellent step up from there, and they started introducing a focus on diverse characters with all the handbooks. 3rd was also a good progression from 2nd, but ended up being a multiclassing character optimization fest.
4th, in my opinion, took the game and changed into an advanced dungeon crawl boardgame, with built in character optimization. Which, in my experience, brought a lot of fresh players. I've seen so many people watch a game of 4th and want to play far more than any other edition. It's a tactical boardgame and a good one. 5th, feels like going back to 3rd, for the most part, and maybe it's what some people wanted fourth to be.I'll get 5th and play it. But I'll bet it won't have the same draw that 4th had for new players. Three of my players progressed to it through their own introduction and evolution through boardgames.
From catan to dnd, who saw that coming? Two of my players came from video game backgrounds. Each group at the mention of dnd would cringe, and be critical that it's a too nerdy for them, until they watched it played, and their opinions changed. So it's like a tactical boardgame or so it's like Warcraft but a table top version. I applaud 4th, it accomplished something the other editions could not.Now 5th is here and time will tell. I was really hoping they would return to the simpler, lighter, old school days but with some modern rule upgrades.Sounds like you'd be delighted with a number of the OSR (old school renaissance) D&D derivatives that have come out in recent years which have taken off to the point that there are already dedicated cons and forums that have sprung up around them.I'm at Dexcon right now and they've already established a small but notable footprint in the RPG schedule.Any recommendations you could throw out?

My favourites are probably Labyrinth Lord, Astonishing Swordsmen of Hyperborea, Ambitions and Avarice, Dungeon Crawl Classics RPG (arguable that it's Old School), Adventurer Conqueror King, Lamentations of the Flame Princess, Whitehack and most recently I acquired Delving Deeper (which is essentially the original Whitebox D&D). None of these is perfect but I love all of them for their own reasons and I have begun working on my own variant of OD&D (using Delving Deeper as my base) to hopefully one day play with my kids when they are old enough.The funny thing is I actually started playing D&D with 2nd edition (I had dabbled in AD&D and the Basic set but I wouldn't say I really played it much) so I am not going back to 'OD&D' out of nostalgia.
In fact I never would have played it, or even bother to learn about it, without the OSR movement and blogs. As I began to re-explore D&D and relearn about it I realized that 'simpler was actually better' for me in this case. A lot of the oddities and concepts make much more sense in OD&D I find, and are easier to reconcile/accept.
When you try to make the game too realistic, and too complex it's 'weaknesses' and failings really begin to stand out like a sore thumb. Plus with a simpler ruleset I can make my variant easily without breaking the game and most importantly, one day I can create adventures, npc's, and so on for my kids with minimal work at all. Oh and did I mention we can have huge battles in a matter of minutes and complete whole adventures in one sitting? That is what I am talking about!
A shame they loaded a bunch of junk the 4.0 players whined for.What sort of things are you talking about? I only loosely followed the playtest, but as a 4E fan I didn't see them making changes that catered to my interests.My sense of it is the same as yours.
We are still playing the last playtest release and there is very little that maps onto the elements 4e was most (in)famous for.I actually liked some of the earlier versions of the playtest better. The final playtest version was stripped down too much for my tastes. I assume (hope!) the more interesting bits will be added back in as modular elements.

Vmware workstation 15 key. The final playtest version was stripped down too much for my tastes. I assume (hope!) the more interesting bits will be added back in as modular elements.The biggest piece was that they homogenized the classes to essentially be characters with special powers (i liken this to everyone being a mage, though thematically not true, mechanically, it certainly is).
I have recently explored the FATE system and have been enjoying the streamlined roleplaying experiences derived from it.Times have changed and I am starting to doubt that any of the D&D versions from advanced to 4e is something an RPGer in today's market wants anymore.Think of it like this- We now have these amazing boardgames with miniatures and pre-balanced systems, all the tactical fun of combat and enough roleplaying. The wish/fantasy fulfillment is there. A game like can really give you that feeling of D&D.But if its the storytelling and open freedom you're wanting, then that's what a system like FATE can provide. That open-ended storytelling that doesn't weigh itself down with system, stats, and charts.Basically what I'm saying is RPGing (specifically the D&D type) has splintered off into two major 'cravings' which can be satisfied through other means.
