[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 5708996, member: 22779"] Yes, I would have absolutely no problem with it. I'd probably not bother with the next review that person writes, but, I'm not going to bitch about what he's written. The question is, in my mind, is he wrong? Is he factually mistaken? I honestly don't know, having never played the game. If he's not wrong, and he's been absolutely clear on his criteria, it's up to you as the reader to decide whether or not this review is useful or not. If I'm looking for a game that has the D&D brand label on it and I expect that game to follow D&D closely, then this review is pretty much spot on. OTOH, if the mechanics are not that important to me and all I'm looking for is a game that uses the trappings of D&D - monsters, classes, whatnot, then this review is less useful. But saying that the review is useless just because he doesn't use your criteria for what is good or bad reflects much more on you the reader than him the reviewer. The next time he writes a review, just don't bother with it because you know his tastes and yours don't match. [/QUOTE]
