[QUOTE="Snarf Zagyg, post: 8420602, member: 7023840"] Wow. Okay. That's super insanely obnoxious, Aldarc. I will assume that's not what you meant. Look, there is a very small group of people making FKR-related games. It's not like they're getting rich off of it, even by the standard of the notoriously-poor hobby. Do you know why? Well, because look at the entire ethos around it. Go on. What's the advice? That's right- it's all DIY. Find media that you like and run your game. To the extent that's a handful of rulesystems, they are incredibly lite and list for a few bucks (usually, suggested donations). But you know what? It seems neat! It's fun! I'm glad that people are out there, experimenting. TBH, I think these things go in cycles, but I'm glad it's there. Unfortunately, we just can't have nice discussions about this sort of thing because there are individuals who reflexively intervene and attack. Now, given what I've seen you post, and your own experience dealing with that type of thing (4e for example), I would think you would be attuned to that sort of thing. Or maybe not. If you feel better for "paraphrasing" me in an obnoxious way in order to make yourself feel better, good. I'll let you have the last word. [/QUOTE]
