@GreyLord First I'm seeing this, so appreciate the post! It's... um... gnarly...

I remember hating the first poligonal games that came out in the 90s because I thought they looked terrible compared to the big, beautiful sprites at the time, but you know, the tech eventual improved to finally get my attention. Although this is certainly not anything I would use or want now...

I like the idea I saw from u/animusRecks that each cover is the same warrior progressing through the levels. Apologies if already mentioned in this long thread...

You have no idea how many times I've said this myself. Currently missing all my Star Wars RPGs I sold off (D6 and Saga releases). :cry:

I feel like the original "Basic Edition" should have been more stripped down to ease new players in a bit better. Then the core books could have added in another layer of crunch to bring it closer to Kenzer's "vision". Finally, the really nitty-gritty could be in extra class splat books. This...

@Mecheon All the points you made were valid and I wasn't aware of. I was just speaking to the three criticisms I saw and felt they were pretty weak, especially compared to what you just posted. I was just trying to reason why others would even bring them up. Explaining why it wasn't bad faith...

Just stumbled on this and I'm hooked! Short blurb I found about the artist:

Also, fun fact, I met the girl who designed all the original Neopets. I was floored to find out she basically only got minimum wage for her effort. One of the reasons I switched from art to engineering in college.
