The atmosphere is totally different - RPGs in the English language are way cooler. The German translations of the AD&D stuff sometimes are really bad, if you know the original. I'm considering collecting the German 1E AD&D stuff at a later date, but probably not the 2E stuff from the 90s, when AMIGO Spiele held the German license. Their products never appealed to me visually. There are some interesting German collectibles, however - for example "Gruft des Grauens" (Tomb of Horrors), signed by Gygax had a print run of 1,000, the German Planescape Monstrous Compendium is rare, and the 1st Edition and D&D modules are interesting. I still have some shrinkwrapped German Dragonlance modules lying around, in case anyone wants to trade.
