[QUOTE="EarthsShadow, post: 555392, member: 3531"] As for Farscape, its not cancelled yet as far as I can tell. I keep seeing previews and commercials for the next season that is to start on January 10th on SciFi channel. I am not saying that B5 wouldn't have its roleplaying opportunities or anything like that...with a good GM any game can be fun. To me, however, I have watched episodes of Stargate, Babylon 5 and Farscape, and of all of them Farscape was just boring, and babylon 5 not far behind, although Babylon 5 did have its twists that could keep a person interested (but I saw many episodes where I fell asleep during the watching of it that I find it boring). However, after reading your reasons as to the potential adventures one could have with B5, if I see episodes on tv I'll give it another watch or two to watch for some of these possibilities, but if that is the game, I still don't think I will buy it. I guess just the possibility of being able to go through numerous Stargates and finding different cultures and technologies and rulers and enemies that don't like humans and attacks against earth and just as many variants for mysteries and diseases and first encounters and second encounters with the species/cultures that don't totally hate us for invading their worlds and then finding strange symbols on ancient walls on faraway planets that could tell us more about our origins and things like that...to me, this and more is why I would play Stargate, because there is just more potential and more freedom to explore, well, at least that is the way it seems to me.
