[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 5633838, member: 22779"] Funny how the commentary seems to be largely at odds with the poll results with, as I write this, DM's being more in favour of strong setting than strong mechanics. I'm very much a strong mechanics fan for a game I want to play. OTOH, if it's an RPG book that I want to read, then I totally want a strong setting. Valherjar is a fantastic urban fantasy setting. Wedded to a stock d20 system. The system isn't anything too earth shaking, but the setting is bloody fantastic. Love reading that book, not sure how interested I am in playing. OTOH, Sufficiently Advanced, a post-humanist SF game had really fun mechanics, but the setting was fairly bare bones. Interesting, but not very detailed. I played SA for almost a year. :D [/QUOTE]
