I fell in love with it the moment I saw it. If you like dark, rare magic, gritty settings, this is the best the d20 system has to offer in my opinion. Midnight seems to be far more focused on the characters, not thier equipment of spell lists like most Forgotten Realms games end up being.Honestly, while you can do a lot of ROLE-playing in Forgotten Realms, it is pretty much required in Midnight.We joke in my group that Midnight is the best Dungeons and Dragons setting that uses neither Dungeons or Dragons. They do exist in the setting, but they aren't anywhere near as common as FR or Greyhawk.If you are looking for crunch bits, you'll find a lot in Midnight. The setting has one of the best magic systems I've seen and the new races and classes are al top notch. The Heroic Paths were a stroke of genius.It really depends on the style of play you are looking for. Forgotten Realms has MUCH more magic and is more upbeat. Midnight is very dark and a sense of hopelessness runs rampant throughout Eredane. It is a large step in another direction from typical D&D.</blockquote>
