   8 Apr 2009 ~ 4:54pm QCH I've been using 4th for almost 6 months and still cannot stand it... why should I pay for crap when I'll never use it after this campaign... Back to 3rd....

   8 Apr 2009 ~ 5:49pm Thrax 3.5 is king. I honestly cannot tolerate 4th Ed. I've tried.

   8 Apr 2009 ~ 6:15pm Gate28 When I play (Which I wish I did more) I use 3. Never used anything else, its what came in my starter kit and its all I know.

   8 Apr 2009 ~ 9:39pm QCH I started playing at age 7 or 8 (yes 7 or 8 so 1982 or 1983). I've played every version and I loved 3rd and 3.5 right behind. 4th has become too idiot proof. Any non-imaginative person can play by picking some things. Dropping $30+ for each crappy book... not a easy pill to swallow.
   
   I'd rather have a 10 page booklet, one for each class and race. Then a book with the player rules and skills. I'd pay $10 a booklet and $15 for the player's rule book.

   I love Hasbro. As Lincoln said, us M:TG people have been putting up with this crap for quite awhile now....

   9 Apr 2009 ~ 9:24am Mochan I've stopped playing Magic because there's too much crap in it. The prices for Type 2 cards are ridiculous these days and a lot of them lose value once they cycle into 1.5. It's ridiculous. And the power balance has been broken to hell and back, and what the hell are they doing to the color wheel?! As a Blue Mage I hate how they've continuously and unceremoniously nerfed Blue to hell.

    This is why I moved to primarily playing Legacy. Don't have nearly the cost issues after the initial investment, since nothing ever rotates out. Ok, I'm done hijacking this thread.
