I didn't say D&D is sucky, I said verision 2 is sucky. My brother (who knows tons about D&D) agrees. And I don't feel like I'm progressing really. Without the perks and skills (which you have in 3rd edition), it's a pretty useless system. I allso hate the rolling stats, the 3rd edition is better on this too. What I would really like is BG2 with the full 3rd edition ruleset (all kinds of races, all kinds of classes/prestige classes). THAT would be an interesting system <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />.
I can't really make a comparison between 2nd and 3rd editions because I haven't played any games that use AD&D 3rd edition (Icewind Dale II, NWN).
Yup, that's the one I was talking about. Turns out it's not only posted at Gamefaqs.
