[QUOTE="Salad Shooter, post: 599184, member: 9709"] Heh...it might sound blasphemous and horribly tarnish my reputation on these boards forever, but I actually prefer WoD games over D&D. Vampire: the Masquerade is a beautiful game, and, for someone just starting into playing WoD games, is probably the best, since it is by far the simplest (of the games I've played). It does have layers and layers that more experienced groups can get into It's Dark Ages cousin is just as great, but, alas, it generally requires more experienced players and storytellers to get the mood right. Werewolf is fun as well, I would have to say it is the best of the WoD games I've played. I've attempted to play Mage, but it is really complicated, and the less-dedicated players usually bail out, causing a hurt to your party. Also, an un-wary storyteller could generate cadres of invincible min-maxer PCs, as Mages can do nearly anything they want, unchecked. If you want a game for very a experienced, well knit, dedicated group, a game of Wraith: the Oblivion would be good. I've never actually played a game, but I own the rule book, and it just seems sweet. The fact that you get to play someone elses dark side...::grins maliciously:: Changeling, while at first seems fairly simple, has some underlying eddies that make it fun and challenging (I haven't played this, either, but I have the rulebook....my RPG group runs in WAY to many systems). Exalted seems to be a great game, I haven't read much about it. I've only once seemed the fabled Hunter: the Reckoning core book, but I was short on cash and could not buy it. Why, oh why, must it sell quickly? I've glanced through the Demon book, and it looks beautiful, but you'd have to remember, you're a DEMON, you're EVIL. Not nice. EVIL. Yeah...well, thats my WW rant, so nya :) [/QUOTE]
