[QUOTE="LuisCarlos17f, post: 7871755, member: 6802378"] I am not against outside developers, but I am surprised when one of most famous franchises are for a new publisher. One of the main matters of WotC is about the enviromental care. We agree we have to respect the nature and take care of the planet because it is our responsibility and our legacy for the future generations. Then... what is the matter? The root of this trouble is in the ecocatatrophism, a too pessimistic vision about our future. This is not only annoying, but this may be even dangerous. Why? The first reason is if we are blinded by our fear then we could be tricked to blame the wrong people when the true responsibble are other. The second reason is the false prophets of the ecology will try sell us their snake oil, false remedies, for example higher taxes. The third reason is if we abuse of the dark tone in the fiction we could be causing prelearnt helplessness, when we lose faith in ourself. A true warrior not only has to defeat the fear of death, but also to fight with enough hope to can face the sacrifice and the suffering. Other of the main threads in WoD games is about the conflicts caused by the intolerance and the fanaticism, and here WW authors have forgotten very important lessons: we have to obey the Natural Law, and the respect for the human dignity, the base of our rights as people, as citizens. Without the Natural Law then we become monsters or zealots and the society is doomed to decadence and autodestruction. If we want to use the fiction to fight the fanaticism then we have to teach how to avoid be manipulated by demagoges when theses uses these feelings to blind our reason: fear, pride, envy, desire, resentment, shame, guilty, If a TTRPG is set in our real life, then sometimes some historical facts have to be mentioned or remembered, for examle the Chinese ecological disaster of the kill sparrows campaign, the disaster of the river Tetcha, the nuclear landfill in the lake Karachay, the biological accident in Sverdlovsk, the "black dragon" fire forest (between Russian and Chinese frontier), the fire of Kursha-2, the great Tzar bomb in the island Severny, the toxic lake of Geamana (Rumany), or Linfen (China), the most polluted river in the world. We know Pentex is the archenemy of the garous and the rest of changing breeds, but I am surprised because apparently the Technocracy, the ultimate nephandi slayers, haven't noticed yet that Pentx is rotten to the core. Even the Weaver should notice if Pentex is the enemy puppet, then technocracy has to be used against this. [/QUOTE]
