[QUOTE="Ulfgeir, post: 7810631, member: 7015719"] Yes, it is expensive, but too expensive, maybe. That depends on your preferences, and the amount of stuff you get. For example, I spent SEK 2300 (about USD 250] on the kickstarter for the Swedish verison of Call of Cthulhu 7e. And £200 for the John Carter Kickstarter. Also spent ASU$ 120 on a Jane-Austen rpg that I will most likely never get to play (unless I play it on a convention) Would I have spent USD$ 250 on this project? Most likely not. Depends on whether or not I would have been interested in the product as such. And the only effect the name of the author has on me in case, is that yes, Monte Cook has done a number of games before. Do I think they are masterpieces, nope, but I do know that he can deliver a product. edit: And then add shipping and customs-fees and VAT's to the prise of a game, and it will quickly be very expensive. This is the reason that Evil Hat for example will no longer sell physical products directly to any person outside of the US. [/QUOTE]
