This is a game from a publisher, used in many Houses in play-testing and also cons therefore not a house rule. House Rule implies one person/groups personal opinion with little to no outside input. There fore DCC RPG is not House Rules. Unless every RPG is House Rules on the first ever DnD.However what annoyed me was the posters 'Meh this is just crap like all the rest when' a) neither he (nor me) have ever seen it and b) it is a published rule set b a reasonably large sized company (take out WotC and Paizo and they are right up there). I much prefer to judge things when I see them."A popular trend is seized upon by people just trying to cash in on a fad with low-quality products that increasingly reduce demand and split the loyalty of customers." That is a pretty hard statement about a respected RPG company. If that poster is talking the truth we need a max limit on RPG games (or maybe d20 games) and the ruthless cull of all others! Rubbish, the more the merrier. I want innovation, adaption and new games.Yes it will be driven by one person's or a small groups vision, as are all RPGs. But, although I don't know, I am pretty sure it won't be a "low-quality product", a cackhanded pile of poo.</blockquote>
