   2e was not too bad, but it feels a bit sanitized in comparison to the   
   quirky 1e products.   
   Even the stuff they did with 2e product lines always were much more   
   interesting in concept than they were in actual practice. I love the   
   ideas behind Dark Sun and Spelljammer for example, I less love the   
   execution.   
      
   Still, I play more B/X-OSR-mishmash, and while 2e products feel more   
   generic one can find at least some kernels of inspiration in them. Much   
   more than the later editions.
