I said PC classes, or "Heroic" classes are more powerful than NPC classes.And I said the difference is to steep for MY TASTE. And also said that the design concept that is the base for this difference is the one that enforces a sytle of playing that is not my cup of tea.Sure they can take levels in heroic classes, but that only confirmes my opinion.Imagine farmer with non-heroic levels, than something happens and he joins the Rebel Alliance, and starts to level up in Soldier class. WHOA, his power more than triplicated, he is a "true heroic character by SW standards". "Now that he is important to the plot he receives the proper power to do all that cool stuff the movie charcater do" .The quantification of this sudden increase of power, or the difference between heroic lvls or non-heroic lvls is not what bothers me most, but the desgign concept behind it. This character was just a side-character, not important to the story, things happened and he became one of the protagonists, one of the stars, the Hero. The game designers wrote a whole Jedi Coucenling to explain why the rules are the way they are, what was the purpose of this edition. Thats exactly what I don't like. It's unrealistic, it feels silly to me, it sometimes even feels like cheating, it breakes the type of "roleplaying" atmosphere i like to enforce in my games. It's not for my style of playing. I enjoy much more a "status quo" kind of gaming. Saga is a cinematic gaming.Entiendes?</blockquote>
