Any Eragon settings in production?

Too bad you all keep ripping the book in a post where the OP liked the book, and wanted to roleplay in a similar world - way to encourage him - very useful posts I'm sure!

You're new here, right?

I read the book, then the movie. Did Eragon seriously say 'heal' for the healing spells? Is this OOTS?

I thought it was hael (hay-l). I've been wrong before, though.

Anyway, I'm going to try to re-rail this topic by again suggesting True20 as the best system to handle this. Either that or Star Wars d20.

Not to be cynical, but I get suspicious of people who are first time posters praising a certain product. Is it legit or viral marketing?

(Though now that I look at the join date, probably not VM, just a lurker....)

Aside from that, I am tired of movie producers changing inconsequential parts of books when there is no benefit from the change, and taking out important parts, and adding in bits that weren't in the books and don't add anything to the story. /rant.

In the movie, the elf looks like a human, and the dwarves are just 5'6 guys with beards and scottish accents... and the Urgals were just darkish skinned barbaric humans.

Anyways, I thought the book was... ok. The movie was irritating as hell. They could have done it a lot better. It wasn't terrible though.

He says Hale, and I'm pretty sure the actor mispronounces it, since its based on Old Norse.

And yes, they sure butchered the book, and the only interesting character in the entire series (Murtagh) got what, five lines?
