[QUOTE="Imaro, post: 4066925, member: 48965"] First let me say, way to slam a game without really having any facts about it. Emphasis mine, where did you find this information, as I have found three "authors listed for Savage Worlds...Shane Lacy Hensley, John Hopler and Zeke Sparkes...but I could be wrong so I'm asking. You realize this is a condensed version of the hardback. Second question...what does mainstream marketing have to do with it, what roleplaying game (including D&D and White Wolf is actually "mainstream nowadays? D&D relies on word of mouth more than any "mainstream" marketing. You haven't seen the inside, but "full color" may be something else...besides "full color". I'm not even understanding why this was stated. It's like saying 3.5 is listed as hardcover...but as I haven't verified it personally hardcover may actually mean no cover at all. The only thing I agree with are that it's production costs may have been less because of it's format...but again it doesn't get the type of discount WotC gets on print runs, so...even this may be a fallacy.
