[QUOTE="Ace, post: 7664805, member: 944"] Nice. I've games with all kinds myself and I tend to regard all good minded TTRPG gamers as part of my quasi tribe and race, creed, gender preference and such don't even come into consideration when to use one of Gary's (rip Gary, rest in play) favorite quotes " Alea iacta est" the die is cast However neither diversity nor inclusiveness are especially relevant to the RPG hobby, its not even an a priori assumption that these are inherent good things when applied to the typical gaming group. RPG's are not struggle sessions or efforts at political correctness or diversity training but an opportunity for friends to hang out . At its roots this hobby a form of war gaming where you play the hero instead of a squad. Its pretty Right Wing power is truth in its roots and this hasn't really changed even with the introduction of more story focused games like Fate or even outright Indie story games. Its still mostly about the adventure, and power and conquest and glory. As such if you want pseudo Europe with not a non White in sight or or something multi-cultural or about relationships or whatever go for it. Do what's right by you and your friends whoever they are, whatever it is and if you don't like what you see and somehow end up invited, say thanks but no and move on. I see the sales reasoning Green Ronin uses as just well pander-tastic though it might appeal to the groups core market. I dunno. That said I own every book for Blue Rose in print form and delighted to see it return. Its a cool system, a neat world and well written I am big fan of the genre as well Now alas for GR I won't be investing in this version as I don't use the AGE system but adding the amazing magic system to AGE is a huge plus to the players of that game as well so I wish GR much success and if a new True 20 adventure using the original system were to show up, heck my wallet would open pretty fast.
