[QUOTE="redkobold, post: 1484509, member: 2585"] Gamers, especially those online do tend to get snippy. I guess those who take the time to write a review online have strong opinions. I really liked the new Gamma World by Bruce Baugh but obviously many folks (or perhaps a vocal minority) ripped it to shreds. I know (from his online comments) that it bugged Bruce. I guess you need a thick skin. I have written a few articles and a lot of time and love goes into the work. It is rough to have someone thrash it. I tend to look at products with an eye for good stuff I will use rather than focusing solely on the parts I dislike. If it has good illustrations to inspire me and a majority of good thoughful and useful content I am happy. If I only focused on things I dislike, I could thrash the core D&D products easily for things like how heavy armor makes you harder to hit, how the monster manual gives next to no flavor for creatures other than their combat tactics, and so forth. I would like to get together some time. I am helping out with a local miniature wargaming con in June (website, t-shirt design, and sculpting a commemorative miniature). Come check it out.
