[QUOTE="ArchfiendBobbie, post: 7722280, member: 6867728"] There are a lot of things done with Numenera that Monte Cook ranted against during his 3E days. Honestly, I blame it on the environment back then. A lot of the bad apples of that era, which included Cook (he was basically a troll king during that era), have since gone on to become well-respected and to earn good reputations. Just put them all together in the same team, and you have a recipe for disaster. Really, Cook is one of the people I expected to end up effectively sidelined and eventually fading from the limelight, like Skip Williams has. Like Williams, Cook kinda earned such a fate. I'm honestly impressed with how far he has come since then, and I suspect he would cringe if he had to go back and face his own past. But, hey, we all make mistakes in our past. I'm seeing he's learning from his, so I'm willing to overlook them. But, yeah... If I had a choice between Hasbro burning WotC down and never publishing DnD again or bringing the 3E team back together, I'd offer to light the match for them. Those people were not good for each other. And the game suffered for it in the long run. [/QUOTE]
