[QUOTE="Majoru Oakheart, post: 6289121, member: 5143"] I'm hoping that we get somewhere between LFR and LG. Most of LFR's ideas were pretty good. Though I believe the ability to play infinitely, create characters at higher levels and the small number of adventures created a lack of investment in your character. Early in the campaign there were so few adventures that we ended up playing ever adventure 4 or 5 times a piece with 4 or 5 different characters. I think part of what made LG work is the number of regions that existed and the investment in your home region's storylines while also having the ability to travel out of region for the truly dedicated in order to get more play experiences. Though, as was mentioned above, this often created an insular campaign where if you weren't one of the people who traveled regularly and showed up to play every week at your local gaming store that it could seem kind of daunting to even start playing. Though, I'm virtually positive that there isn't going to be regions in the new campaign. It sounds like there are only 3 people in charge of the whole campaign from the way the volunteer positions were advertised(though there was mention of a "regional bible" in the writeup, so maybe there's just 2 or 3 regions). Still, I found LFR to be a little TOO casual. Especially with Encounters fulfilling the role of the ultra casual campaign I can't help but feel that there should be room to make the new Living Campaign a little more "hardcore". [/QUOTE]
