The setting and lore were spot on.I also got to play L5R 2e a bit through organized play (Heroes of Rokugan). What I found is that I only liked every other game. One time, we were investigating a murder, and when it got good, we were told to stop due to political reasons. I learned real quickly that saving face meant more than doing the right thing, which totally goes against how I'm wired. I like my fantasy to be heroic.I also realized I wanted more of a D&D-ized version of Rokugan. Or at least something that integrated all of Oriental Adventures. In the end, I realized that I wanted something that was a homebrew mashup and that there weren't a lot of folks around here that seemed to be interested in that.So from what I've read, this new game focuses on the heroes of Rokugan. That's more of my speed.</blockquote>
