Currently playing D&D 5th, the newest edition. I have also extensively played D&D 3.5 and various OSR retro-clones of the older editions.

I was part of a fantastic campaign over the summer. It was my first long term game, as the others never lasted more than a couple sessions.

We were playing either 5 or 4.5 I don't quite remember.

But my goat steed sure fucked shit up.

Sadly, the graveyard shift makes it nearly impossible to participate anymore.

There never was a D&D 4.5, so it was probably 5e.

The quickest way to tell 4e and 5e apart is how character powers refresh. 4e uses per encounter powers / daily powers, 5e uses short rests and long rests.

Aye; game day is always the day you nap rather than sleep.

This weekend I went to my friends', stayed whole weekend, and we played cool adventure. It was so much fun, way better than Roll20.net.

I think these RPGs are among the most complicated and rewarding experiences when done right.

I haven't played since 2nd edition.
I had the best group ever. After that group split up, I was never able to find another group that could match them, and eventually gave up.

I tried getting back into rpgs a couple years ago, I met a girl that said she had a good group. It wasn't DnD, it was a post-apocalyptic zombie one, I forget the name.
The group was decent, and I was starting to have fun. But then drama began. A love triangle, actually more like a love hexagon, formed. Tensions rose. I could see that the group, that had been together for years, was going to fall apart because of my influence.
So I stopped going.

It's hard to find a good group, and also hard to keep it together.
I just don't have enough patience to deal with humans in groups.

AD&D 2nd had terrible adventures and the most byzantine rules-set - but some of the greatest campaign settings, such as Spelljammer and Ravenloft.
