Chris Pramas and his thoughts on GSL

Now the time is right for Mutants and Masterminds organized play. Come on Chris Pramas, make it happen.

Along the lines of the RPGA LFR? Yes sir, I'd report for that.

Wow! I have never been quoted so much in a single thread before!

And I'm loving the new Paizo License. That's my thoughts on it. Especially loving the indefinite sell off period of existing stock after non-Breech Termination.

While I understand the reasoning and respect him for it, I feel bad that I won't be supporting his company since I'm only buying 4E products from here on out. I wish him luck...

You and your group just need to start using our 4E Character Record Folio. We used the OGL for that one.

We've talked it about since the days of first edition M&M, but a good OP program takes staff and infrastructure that we just don't have right now.

Of all the companies I respect...GR gets my tip of the hat.

Chris and to everyone else...continue the Next (GREAT) Adventure.

If Green Ronin are uninspired by 4e, then them choosing not to support it is a good thing. The GSL really doesn't have too much to do with that.

That said, a new campaign setting built from the ground-up with 4e assumptions would be a good thing, IMO, whether produced by WotC or someone else. And Green Ronin would be one of the companies I'd expect to do a really solid job on such a project.

This = me. I'd have loved to see GR 4E books, maybe even to work on some, but I cannot fault Chris's reasoning. And of course, I'd much prefer to see him work on stuff he's psyched about.

Actually, I'd prefer it if Chris had become psyched about 4E...

That said, he shouldn't really base his commercial decisions based on my opinion (not that there's any risk...) because while I loved those first Freeport adventures, too much stuff have been decidedly Epic, or at least Paragon (using 4E terms).

Not to speak about M&M, of course...

What I liked about Freeport was the nice low-level Warhammerian Cthuloid blend; a blend I'm convinced can only thrive in a low-powered D&D environment (read "one where hit points come in short supply")...

So while I'm a fan of their products, I am not such a great Green Ronin customer. In fact, you could chalk me up as a personal Pramas fan (WFRPv2, Dragon Fist, the original Freeport trilogy...) rather than a Green Ronin regular!

So while I guess I'm disappointed he won't support my current choice of game (4E), I guess I won't play that forever...

A perfectly reasonable decision.

Chris,

Glad to hear that you have at least entertained the idea of M&M organized play. I totally understand about the infrastructure thing. I just wish...

Oh, it'd be so freakin' awesome.
