[QUOTE="Mouseferatu, post: 1574819, member: 1288"] Disclaimer: I worked on Dawnforge, so you may not want to take my opinion as 100% unbiased. Then again, I only worked on a small portion of it, so I do think it's safe for me to discuss the work as a whole. That out of the way... I love Dawnforge. Love it, love it, love it. I love the fact that it finds a way to include all the "standards" of D&D, and then some, without ever feeling overcrowded or overloaded. I love the feel of "D&D before D&D," the details that make it clear this world will one day develop into something that resembles "default" D&D, but isn't there yet. I love the fact that they managed to balance all the new abilities they give the various races, as opposed to some books that throw in new stuff without considering what it does to balance, CR, etc. I love the feel of the world, I love the plot/story potential. I'm a die-hard home-brewer at heart; there are *very* few worlds I would even consider running "out of the box." Dawnforge is one of them. I got the core book free, since I worked on it, but if I'd paid full price, I'd be satisfied that I got more than my money's worth. [/QUOTE]
