[QUOTE="Jimmy Dick, post: 8065880, member: 6994416"] Just before 2e released I told the players at my lodge that I would start running 2e for them so they could try it out. At that time we were able to run a total 3 to 4 tables at our monthly Saturday event in two slots. We had about 12 dedicated players who made at least one of the slots and about 10 more that fluctuated over a period of time. Roughly half of them were interested in going to 2e completely and the other half were skeptical about it. But they did agree to try it out. I got back from Gen Con and ran 1-01 The Absalom Initiation in both sessions. There was one person who was pretty adamant that he was going to hate the edition, but was willing to give it a chance because as he said, "It is not right for me to reject it without at least trying it." After the first game, he said he wasn't sure. He was going to give it another session the following month. I think we ran 1-03 Escaping the Grave that time. He bought the CRB after the session and hasn't played 1e since. He was going to start GMing in March, but the pandemic has put a stop to our live events for now.
