I am not understanding the rabid fanbase that is forming, but that is good for Goodman Games and I certainly wish them no ill.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3094937232522894470.post-43163477854722321082011-06-13T11:15:53.037-07:002011-06-13T11:15:53.037-07:00I share the overall sentiment expressed in this po...I share the overall sentiment expressed in this post. <br /><br />(Despite that, I'm contributing to the production of a 'Swords and Wizardry' variant book called 'Crypts and Things'.

If I want different, I'll play Savage Worlds or even Rolemaster (the latter game has always intrigued me but I get scared off by the seeming complexity...and any games that aren't based on the D&D system are also intriguing to me). <br /><br />And sign me up for that retirement home, baby! I'm looking forward to returning to a period in my life where I have lots of free time to game!!!Anthony Simeonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04312134763577949405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3094937232522894470.post-54101134058382416612011-06-10T11:31:34.503-07:002011-06-10T11:31:34.503-07:00Here is my suggestion for D&D variant overload...Here is my suggestion for D&D variant overload-related ennui: get Anomalous Subsurface Environment.

DCC looks like it has a lot of cool ideas in it, but I don't think I'd bother to play it, rather strip the ideas I like and try to import them into my current D&D of choice (LL).<br /><br />I think the trouble is that it's similar enough to other flavours of D&D that it doesn't feel like a new game. So if I were ever to be looking for a new game, DCC wouldn't be it (I'd be looking for something <i>really</i> different, not just another slightly different D&D).<br /><br />I do think it looks really cool though, and hope they do well with it!Gavin Normanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12362875699031245377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3094937232522894470.post-77171609262845350642011-06-10T06:01:29.019-07:002011-06-10T06:01:29.019-07:00I'm of the same opinion: I'm just not in t...I'm of the same opinion: I'm just not in the market for a new FRPG, especially another D&D variant, even though it departs greatly from traditional D&D in some ways. If I were to play a different FRPG, I'd want something completely different like RuneQuest.Grumpy Old Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11087904102183244773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3094937232522894470.post-35144806000218109702011-06-10T05:31:51.936-07:002011-06-10T05:31:51.936-07:00Well said, I feel the same way.

I currently play LL but would likely play S&W WhiteBox, the Original LBBs, or Raggi's LotFP WFRP before I'd turn to DCC.Carter Soleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01286436801953647693noreply@blogger.com
