[QUOTE="Stefano Rinaldelli, post: 8281585, member: 6791994"] This discussion it seems to be sensless. 44 years old. Ravenloft Refreshed. Rebooted if you want. Different from the original? SURE Bad product? Not at all. Worst than original? No. Why we give importance to canon? Because canon explain us how a setting is alive. And we want a setting to be alive. Because we are in the middle between passive fruition (as per a saga of novels) and active fruition (an homebrew setting). The first paralize the creativity of DM, the last cost too much in terms of prep time and creative effort. We need to stay in the middle because it is the more efficient way of playing, so we need rebooted setting. Posing that we can always remove the traits we don't like, the best thing is that we have rebooted setting that mantain the original core of ideas but with some changes that permit us not to be statically and in the end bored about. So yes I'm an older player and I'm all in with WOTC editorial line. They know how to create good RPG products. P.S. YES I have read the book. And guys I must say the new DARKON is the most inspiring thing I've seen from the very start of 5edition. P.P.S. BUT WAIT! VECNA? Where is Vecna? They have something in the pocket because they cannot let VECNA disappear in this way! P.P.P.S. OK VECNA IS A GOD NOW. Sorry [/QUOTE]
