[QUOTE="Wik, post: 5319337, member: 40177"] Ha ha. Damn you for proving me wrong by using my words! :) What I mean is, the game is still around today, and making decent money (or at least, I presume so as there is a fair amount of product in my game store, and it seems to be moving at an okay pace). And I buy some of those products, because I love the basic idea. But everytime I read one of those products, my head starts to spin and I find myself saying "you know, I could probably play this, but there's no way in hell I'd GM it... and I seriously doubt half my group would really get into it." So what I mean is, the game is still alive despite a metaplot that is rather heavy. And then I just kind of segued into the fact that this metaplot is the primary reason I don't play the game. One of the reasons we never bought any Earthdawn supplements was because, in the magic section, there was a line that basically read "this whole chapter of magic will be dealt with in this upcoming book...." which really bugged us. Never mind that D&D required THREE books to play compared to Earthdawn's ONE (plus this magic book for extras). It just felt "wrong" to us. [/QUOTE]
