[QUOTE="SteveC, post: 9826826, member: 9053"] I would say the answer, in a broad sense, is "no." Of course there are people who are interested in it, just like there are people who love the Avatar game, but in a broad sense, it hasn't attracted large scale attention. This is despite having everything you need at launch: core books in physical and PDF, a sample adventure, a sample campaign, and availability on VTTs. What it didn't have is a core audience in the main stream RPG world. I am sure there are places where Sanderson fans are talking about it, I just don't know any of them. And I roam around on the Interwebz, so I see a ton of game systems. Heck I think I picked up 20 RPGs outside of the mainstream communities, and about a dozen of them were really good. None of them have 1% of the Sanderson fanbase, but I find it easier to locate discussions on Mythic Bastionlands or Tresspasser than Cosmere. I'm not saying anything bad about the game or the fanbase or the books at all but it doesn't appear that the game has landed in the same way as other games have. And that's not for having a smart staff creating the product. I think that someone in the group should have watched the video of Matt Colville on Community before launch. If you love this game, I'm not throwing any shade at you. Run it and tell all of us why it's awesome. [/QUOTE]
