[QUOTE="AllisterH, post: 4933999, member: 51325"] Welll, SR isn't really a setting reboot. It basically just moves the timeline up a few years and that's it. It basically is the same method as was done for the 3e FRCS when you compare it to the 2e Boxed set. Same general setting moved up a few years with a couple of rules change. The difference with BOTH WoD and D&D is they did both. Reboot the settings AND reboot the rules at the same time. Basically, the people who invested in the setting feel like their time was wasted (even though they still have their same experiences) and of course, they are the most vocal. The guy that may just be tangentialy interested in the game isn't one to complain loudly across the net. There probably would've been MASSIVE outcry if say for example Crisis on Infinite Earth had taken place in the Internet age. Both marvel and DC pretty much need reboots IMO but both are too scared to pull the lever and have found ways around it (Marvel by creating the Ultimate Line and DC by having min-reboots every 3-4 years and quietly changing stuff) [/QUOTE]
