[QUOTE="Lazarus Long, post: 191632, member: 1800"] I really do have a lot of respect for Kenzer and HM, I just don't think I'd enjoy playing it. After writing this review, I went to my local gaming store and paged through some of the other HM stuff. I'm very impressed with the quality and the obvious love that the designers have for the game. In no way do I think HM is a bad game, I just think I wouldn't have that much fun playing it. I also was sent a copy of Kenzer's D&D comic. I liked it for the most part. the art was great and the writing was so good that I was drawn into the story immediately, even though the issue that I got was from the middle of a story arc. If I had more money (got laid off ;() I would probably pick this mag up whenevre I saw it. The only thing I didn't like was something that I dislike in a lot of fantasy fiction- the dialects just seemed too forced. Language shouldn't draw attention to itself, it should flow smoothly. All in all, I really like what I'm seeing from Kenzer... some of it isn't just for me. [/QUOTE]
