For me it’s D&D 5e.
Before it came out, I was excited that WoTC was simplifying the game and supposedly making it more old school and it would be easy to convert old D&D adventures. It sounded like a more refined Castles & Crusades … an official Rosetta Stone. What I got was long rests, purple elves, the worst pictures of Halflings I’ve ever seen, way too much magic, way too high powered characters, and more.
I tried running adventures league at first but just couldn’t get into it. The fact that most people eat this game up certainly reinforces the fact that my tastes are not mainstream.
Every time I find people to game with, they want to play D&D 5e. At one point, I decided I’d never run it again and put my 5e books in the ‘to sell’ pile. Soon after, my brother in law texted me to ask if I knew how to play D&D and that he had gotten a group together and they just needed a DM. I got my 5e books out of the sell pile, and did my time once again. One more session though and we’re starting Mythras Conan.
