[QUOTE="sidonunspa, post: 6316010, member: 4360"] as someone who was on the inside and the outside I can see what you mean.. BUT, it inspired more play then any campaign before or after it, it inspired players and volunteers alike, people ran conventions and even drove out of state to play adventures.... all of it created a huge community of players who loved the game and loved the products which supported it. to get numbers and excitement like that it takes work... the new program will never reach the same level of fevered play LG did, which will be reflected in conventions and in game days. Pathfinder captures some of that, but when it comes to story, they suck... a cohesive story takes a LOT of work.. trust me, I helped craft the epic 5 year Arcanis story arc... LG was lighting in a bottle... they could re-create that if they wanted to.. but look at Adventurers League and how they are limiting home play, I just don't see it. look at it this way, right now in PF you can run any of the adventure paths as a PFS home page and get full credit... I don't know anyone that has done so, but I know at least 5 tables worth of people that play every PFS adventure as soon as it comes out... the way AL is shaping up, they seem to be forcing the adventure path method on home games, that does not bode well for the future of the campaign. I wish they would just bring back the LC model and be done with it! [/QUOTE]
