Message: <blockquote data-quote="Cergorach" data-source="post: 1908031" data-attributes="member: 725">I really liked the dp9 stuff before it went dual stated, and now that it's dual stated it has more appeal from a usage point of view. Not that i expect to play it, but if i was (and i would probably dm it), i am very happy that i can just use rules i already know and so do my players. My group has alreay trouble getting together (time to play rpgs is scarce for my friends), spending additional time learning new rules and fumbling with them is not high on their priority list.Two problems:1.) It's not really easily available around here, so impulse buys are out and as i don't expect to really play this anytime soon, planned buys are often out of the question. RPGnow was a good alternative (talk about instant gratification), but the quality of the pdfs is horrible (all scanned images with text underneath), so i only bought a few. If they where in their original electronic format i would probably buy more (if not all eventually).2.) I really loved the feel of Heavy Gear first edition, i have a bunch of books i got for 'cheap' from a sale, and a bunch of RAFM heavy gears. The second edition (from what i've seen) made a lesser 'impact' on me. The Third edition i haven't really looked at yest, but the consolidation of one universel rpg rule book for all the settings was a great idea (i have that from RPGnow).So did the dual statting attract a new customer? Partly, i actually bought a couple of dp9 books (in pdf) in a long time.</blockquote>
