One look at the map and some of the details and I realized it wasn't for me. Before that I was more hyped on it than Nightfall is now - and quite vocal about such in the online and offline places I wasted time.d20 Modern - took a look at how so many 'combat manuevers' were feats, and how unarmed combat worked, then noticed my Shadowrun collection and realized that I already had a very good solution to the genre - so what was the point of buying a second one that didn't really work for me?There are others as well...Several of the Mongoose Quintessential books, and Occult Lore from Penumbra. Almost every module I bought... and so on.Some like Occult Lore looked interesting, but didn't pan out to my needs. Some I just wonder why I bought them...Of course, the impulse buy had really done me right on occaision. The two things I run at the moment where both impulse buys: Kalamar and Mutants and Masterminds. Getting back into DnD with 3E was itself largely an impulse buy. I bought Wheel of Time on impulse and while I didn't use it, it led me to the novels and I read the entire series save for the last book (yet).All of those where things I had negative opinions on but bought anyway just to shut up an inner voice.So I'm willing to take the bad in order to reach the good.</blockquote>
