Is Storm King's Thunder a flop . . ? Still early yet but doesn't look that good.

[QUOTE="Charles Rampant, post: 6923145, member: 32659"] I do remember reading your review and finding it interesting, albeit I still bought the thing anyway. (Part of that is that it will be super useful for my future Waterdeep home campaign, even ignoring the Giants bits!) So thanks for the review. :) The Strahd thing is true, and definitely ties into the oft-mentioned 'personalities' theme of that adventure. It doesn't matter where you go or what you do in Curse, so long as you meet Rictavio, the Hags, the Keepers, and Strahd. Hekaton and his family don't really have that quality, but then the adventure is much less focused on personalities, instead (from what I've seen) having a very location-heavy focus instead. I'm intending to run it in a few months, once we finish Curse of Strahd. We're up to Yester Hill now, as 5th level characters, so still a fair way to go yet. (That is, assuming the Tiefling who receives endless racist abuse from the rest of the party doesn't take up Strahd's offer to be his successor and murders his comrades in their sleep...) It should be very interesting to see how SKT compares to CoS, even as I see how CoS compares to PotA. [/QUOTE]
