[QUOTE="Marcon, post: 4531197, member: 16259"] Everybody who participated in the making of this campaign saga didn't get half the credit they deserved. I know how it feels to finally release something and then die in vain to receive critics. Heck, not necessarily positive ones, I'm sure you'd rather read a bunch of insults than stand this uneasy silence. The launch of 4E certainly dealt a crippling blow to WotBS, it probably contributed to jeopardize the release dates and then people lost interest. With that being said, let me tell you my group is halfway through the Scouring of Gate Pass and it is a blast so far. I have read half of the adventures and I've been impressed everytime. It is so refreshing to get out of the dark and dampy dungeons, out into the wilderness to deal with "glossed-over" aspects of D&D such as politics, large-scale battles and such. Having an easy access to most of the adventures' authors is also very helpful for DMs. RangerWickett in particular has answered some tricky questions and is always willing to share his thoughts behind this act or encounter, even though it would be easy (And perfectly understandable, one needs a break sometimes) for him to distance himself from the saga. I didn't read adventure 12 per se, WotBS is so well-written I sometimes have the feeling I am reading a novel so I don't want to spoil the ending for myself even though I am DMing. I'll get to it soon enough and I am sure I won't be disappointed. Should there be stuff I don't agree it with, the saga is so open-ended I'll just mine what I like and piece it up together for the epic ending this campaign deserves. Thanks to everyone for the countless hours, I'm sure evil thoughts such as "[I]Hey, why do we give a damn anymore, what with everyone into 4E, they wouldn't even notice if we canned this project altogether[/I]" crossed your mind but you managed to keep the focus and deliver a product whose quality rivals everything on the market. Trust me, you have a lot of (thus-far) quiet fans such as myself. -Marcon [/QUOTE]
