[QUOTE="Tonguez, post: 8497577, member: 1125"] I agree when I first discovered an RQ adventure all the talk of Storm Bulls, cults, rune magic were quite mindbending for the teenage me, but also quite intimidating so I didnt play until many years later. I think the briliiance of d20 though is that it is a D% based system simplified via 5% increments, for that RQ can be thanked. Also while D&D isnt Generic, I do think that a lot of modern fantasy is influenced by it, D&D is the Hollywood of RPGs and it has been able to cram in and twist other genres to fit its mode to the extent that many people view traditional Fanatsy and even Mythic tropes through a DnD lens (which is both sad and impressive) [/QUOTE]
