I always wondered if the German cover was at the end too bland? I mean, I love Klemens' work, but maybe it doesn't quite grab the buyer?

I think that you mean this attractive, yet generic cover?

Star Frontiers is probably the biggest delta for me. It was my first RPG but my GM switched to GURPS after several sessions. Returning to the original game after a couple decades, it just doesn’t hold up. The system is workmanlike and not especially notable even for the early 80s; ditto for the adventures. Both have silly things (hopefully unintentional). I’ll have a soft spot for it, but for pulpy space adventures, there’s much better choices now.

There was a period where I could not find Shadowrun players, so I missed most of third edition, and then returning to playing really steadily from 4th edition on. Thus, I missed the metaplot around the 3rd edition and . . . that does not bother me at all. I have been pretty studiously avoiding the Shadowrun metaplot as much as possible in my campaign. While I feel the rules have been consistantly been getting better and better.

While for Legend of the Five Rings, there was a period where nothing, and I mean nothing, was being released as Fantasy Flight and then Edge decided where they wanted to go with the property. I do not care for the new Legends of the Five Rings system nor many of the changes made to the setting, though their were some good ideas there too, but overall, it is not for me.

While I still love the Deadlands setting, I feel that -mechanically- the uniqueness of the setting has been worn down into indistinctness by the Savage Worlds rule set. Mechanically Hucksters, Blessed, and Shamans, are just different flavors of vanellia spell casters now. I miss playing poker with the devil -and the attendant risk- to cast my hexes.

VGG of the Week hand-off formally happens tomorrow! Woot! I'm excited!

Video-making continues... cloud has been slow and buffery and just mean today. Clipchamp kept trying to connect to OneDrive which I keep disabled for reasons! Gah!

Anyway, work continues. Hoping for a productive Sunday to wrap up my pre-launch to-dos tomorrow :geek_grin:.

Game Over On borrowed time...

Happy Saturday and happy playing!

...Well had a delightful... That feels like the wrong word for the session I just played, but it was fun... Game of Whispers in the Walls tonight but I'll need to add it to the database before I can add it here, because while 1e is in the database 2e is not.
