It reflects on social acceptance.

Huh. Do you know where they're moving too?

I guess that's true, now that you mention it! :D But my point is that it's never going to happen, and one man's "WotC Scraps" is another's "Thriving and Successful Business".

The point isn't where people are buying RPG books in person, but that more and more people aren't buying RPG books in person. FLGS, the Video Store of the next decade. EDIT: I'm not talking about D&D and WoD here, I'm talking about everything else in the RPG market. Pathfinder (and everything...

Star Frontiers, but it wasn't until ShadowRun that I really had a long-term D&D-alternate campaign going.

I think there are a few factors here: 1) FLGS in general are a dying breed. It's not that "Pathfinder" is a niche product, it's that RPGs are niche products. The question is what's the best way to sell a niche product, and apparently Paizo's answer is "online". 2) Considering that they had...

I think Shut In, from Dungeon 128. would be an awesome little adventure for a scary night of gaming.

My regular Wednesday group is cycling between SCAP, a 3.5 adaptation to the Desert of Desolation adventures, and Mutants and Masterminds. Once I finish up with the Desert of Desolation I'm thinking about adding a True20 Kara Tur game. My slightly less regular Sunday group is cycling between...

Interesting? Yes. Fun? Yes. But I don't think that's where scary resides. Although looking back I see you're addressing the OP's actual question better than the rest of us.

Yup, Right here. Also, see if you can dig up some old Call of Cuthulu minis. There were good choices there, as well.

There were many products for 3e that I had no interest in that I decided to buy after perusing the art galleries. I think they're missing out on an opportunity here.

The Ravenloft campaign setting understood it. Unforunately every adventure TSR published for the selling failed to understand it. I've had great results with Ravenloft and Call of Cuthulu. I've also been in completely non-scary games using the same systems. On the other end I've been in...

I love it.

PKB "suggests" that you run the Peanuts one. I'd go with her on that, or your slot might start to look like another 20's gangster scene. Capiche? BTW, we're in. Silver Moon, I'd also like in your game, please (as would PKB).

How is it that this "clique" gets voted in by the entirety of the posters of ENWorld, RPGnet, and other, smaller, sites? They must be very popular. I understand you don't feel you belong. But people not liking you doesn't impair their ability to judge RPG products. From the flip side, that...

I would have understood if the comment was Low- vs High-magic. I just don't classify Tolkien as "high-magic" It's got like 3 magic items and 1 wizard, who most likely would have been a DM NPC. (Excepting villains). I that were the case I would have classified it as: Low-magic is Conan, Fafhrd...

I agree with you if we're talking about the literature, but it has always seemed to me that RPG wise they end up playing the same. I don't see players that treat them any differently, but that might just be my sphere of interaction.

What's the difference there? I consider them practically the same thing.

Wow. Remind me never to vote for you as an ENnies judge, then. I love Mutants and Masterminds, but I'm capable of looking at Hollow Earth Expedition and judging it as a separate entity. I'm not downgrading HEX because it doesn't allow me to create someone that can fly and shoot lasers out of...

I don't agree that it's bad in play. Where it really bogs down for me is before: creating adventures. That's the real time suck.
