[QUOTE="Rothe, post: 3484366, member: 39813"] Maybe it is because the outcome of any disucssion on what or what is not good or bad in gaming has no consequences. The world doesn't care about edition wars, and they don't lead to actual war. Religion, politics, those can lead to actual wars and bloodshed, so I think people have a greater sensitivity on those topics. No and Yes. :) I wouldn't say we are Iliad based, too high powered. :) My own setting and what I've played in are very much based off Hyborean REH like setting. We're also pretty happy with "bland" character options, no Half-A, Half-B, unless you want half-elf or half-orc, also no prestige classes. Maybe go with older/other product and/or older players. I never let a product dictate what I do, never have, and take offense at companies that explicitly or implicitly try to tell me otherwise. My money flows to them not the other way around. When they pay me I'll let them tell me how to play. Sure there is hope, you just have to fidn the right players. I'd suggest looking for some older gamers (40+) and ones who are pretty open minded about system. This may be personal prejudice (being in the 40+ crowd) but as a general rule such players I've found are less likely to be difficult (with a one true way or one true game mentality be it 1e, 2e, 3e, 4e, etc.). Sadly, I'd also suggest you might have better luck through personal connections than the internet. [/QUOTE]
