Wow, loads of votes for the original version of AD&D, I have never played 1.0, how much difference is there from 2.0?

They're really not very similar. Wiki article listing changes.

Excellent write up!:thumbsup:

Advanced D&D Original. Pewter figurines never looked so good as when playing with those rules.

I have never played D&D. I've played Rifts, Palladium Fantasy, Heavy Gear, and have GM'd Rifts

It's really hard getting into Rifts. Someone above said that Palladium has made Rifts into one giant cluster fvck and he's kind of right. I feel Ultimate Rifts did resolve some problems, but only from the original rules. There's still the problem with escalation, as all of the original character classes are inferior to the expansion classes. And then there are dragons in the original book, which is simply overpowered in a lot of ways. Palladium has a problem of adding more power to its newest classes. When I GM'd I restricted players to only HUMAN classes from the Ultimate Rifts book, and that worked out very well. I ran a killer campaign too, everyone wanted to keep playing but I got bogged down with school. I have more free time now but I don't know where the character sheets even are =p

Whichever version AOL's Neverwinter Nights used, since that's the only D&D I've ever played.
