Message: <blockquote data-quote="Celebrim" data-source="post: 3328994" data-attributes="member: 4937">So the last bit of criticism I had against the module after a long litany is me condemning a whole module baded on one line of dialogue?  That was the last and least of my complaints, and far from being the whole sum of them.  It's important only insomuch as it shows that although U1 is a significant advance in story plot from earlier modules, in many ways its still a very primitive module.  The other complaints I made are more significant, which is why I listed them first and spent more time on them.Let me get this straight in case there is anyone else that can't pick up on this sublty.  I think U1 is a great module.  It's one of the first prepared modules I encountered as a young player, it was run well by the DM, and it inspired my story telling for a long time.  It's a far better module than B2 in just about everyway (the first published module I DMed), and I became a better DM the more I began to realize that and why.  It definately deserves to be listed among the 30 best and most important modules of all time.   But the question at hand is not whether it is merely a good module, but whether or not it is in fact the best low level module ever written and all I'm suggesting is that it has too many flaws for that claim to go unchallenged.  And I say that while agreeing with Joshua that its probably a better written module than anything in the top 5 with the exception of Ravenloft.</blockquote>
