Darksun Teasers

[jensun]

Allow me to add myself to the "very rare" category.

What I find puzzling is the objection to the idea of primordial or elemental powers in the setting since, if my aged brain recalls correctly, Clerics were elementally focused from the very beginning (Templars excepted).

You might almost think people were looking for reasons to hate something which isn't even out for nearly a year.

Not to muddy the waters more, but I use Firefox and it was light grey to me :\

Ditto.

I don't think us 4e & Dark Sun lovers are as rare as we think we are.

I'm 4e lover and a Dark Sun liker. You can only love one setting, and for me it's the one with trains, airships, robots and dinosaurs .

You can only love one setting...

Pshaw! It's all in how you were raised, and what's acceptable in your community.

FWIW, WinXP here: FF 3.5, Chrome & IE8 = Black on white.

I see no cause for fear and panic yet. Although I am forced to wonder why he's sweating realism in a 4e setting, given that 4e is one of the least simulationist games ever made.

My 2 cents...

Text was grey on white. Annoying.

Dark sun good.

4e meh.

Teiflings in Darksun - I fail to see the problem.

Dragonborn in Darksun - likewise.

Gnomes in Darksun - Halfling chow.

Eladrin in Darksun - Varient elves. No big deal.

Golaiths - 1/2 giant reskin maybe?

Deva - No.

Shifters - I don't see it.

Primordials - These differ from the elemental lords how exactly?

FWIW, I'm 'very rare,' too.

I find it kind of funny that, when 4e came out and there were a lot of rumors about which would be the 2010 setting, pretty much everyone agreed on Dark Sun, because it was thought "the definite 4e setting". Have things changed so much in this years that the "ideal" setting for 4e is now completely opposite to what 4e means?

Myself, I'm looking forward to the Dark Sun Campaign Guide, to use it in my Pathfinder games

BTW, Firefox at a kubuntu desktop, gray text on white background.

Nope. Dark Sun is great for 4e.
