I never thought I'd see the day there was 4E purists.

Like 3.5E and OSR purists I kinda get, but 4E?

I think it's likely that they meant 4e was the change that made it not D&D. That said, time has dulled the shock, and honestly, 4e had a lot of great shit in it.

@ag_roberston_author What I mean is it hasn't been the same since 4E was wrought upon us.

I'm a 3.5E schlub.

In 5E's defense, I've been playing since AD&D, and I've never had as many sessions, with so many people, and had so much fun, since 5e. 5E made D&D accessible, and that's a good enough reason for me to DM with it.

@nxdefiant Hear you loud and clear: I should get with the times, or at least be open to it.

I was so hurt by 4E, but I gotta move on.

Oh don't let me discourage you! I still play 3.5 with some friends who just prefer it. To each according to their need!

Ah, gotcha. That makes much more sense haha.
