Toll Carom said:I've read it, but I do not own it. (I don't feel it's worth the cover price.) It fails because the writing and design are sub-standard, in my opinion,
If there are authentic design problems, surely you can relate to me some of the failings.
and because it suffers from the usual Mongoose production philosophy.
If there is one thing that I have learned about Mongoose, it is that their "usual production philosophy" does not produce products that are either consistently good or bad for my purposes. I have been disappointed in Book of Strongholds and Dynasties but pleased as punch with Book of the Planes.
The creature-oriented material doesn't hold a candle to that presented in the Book of Fiends,
Again, this is not an evaluation that tell me anything other than it failed to meet some criterion that you have. Why doesn't it hold a candle to what's in the book of fiends? How does it fall short?
and moreover, it's even more of a let down as "a location book" because it doesn't provide users -- or at least this user -- with what they'd need to run a good Hell game solely with the product.
Well, I never run my game solely with one product, but it leaves me wondering just what it is lacking?
