[QUOTE="Zelda Themelin, post: 1823992, member: 167"] I find myself seeing things similary than you Trickster. Like I said in another thread, this is not surprising at all, only bothersome they took so long to deliver the news. I prefer direct actions over vague hints. At least they now admitted it's over, nice. I don't for minute think there is ever going to be new start for Scarn. Not a big enough seller. So, until some other company buys the rights, my logic based divinations tell, that "when it's over, it's over". Recent scarred Lands books have indeed lacked quality. And those that didn't as such, just continued to drag the setting to wrong direction, toward medicore and "safe", that is. They created the setting with Divane wars 150 years ago, where gods literally walk among mortals. Then they spend most of the books trying to erase that idea. And while at it, they also managed to make scarred lands more safe and human-welcomming place to live, despite the new monster books. I think that CR of the whole world went down. And then there was the new unspeakble evil guys. Oh, and making Slarecians pure destructive evil. Boring. And Elven god resurrection thing. All this and paladin-prestige classes too, felt like hijacking original titan-god thing Scarred land used to have. I don't know if they were alianating their fans generally or just me and my group. I still buyed the book, and hoped it would get better. And because I like collecting rpg-books (I have all FR, all Eberron, Oathbound, Greyhawk, Midnight etc. too, so this is hardly surprising). Irregular notions about should it be low or high magic, should it be thy avarage fantasy world or very epic world were part of problem. Seemed to we writers didn't quite agree among themselves about that one. I don't think scarred lands as it is now is going to make a good fan-project. Someone should take all the boring ideas out first. Well, that's how I feel. I am still hopeful newest book has some usable stuff plotwise. I am pretty bored with prestige classes. [/QUOTE]
