I'm not one of those people, I think both of them are fine roleplaying games with their place in the market.Just because you do not care for the WoD setting, the premise or the rules should not be a reason for you to dismiss it as being a bad game. To do so, you are basically telling your fellow gamers that their opinion is invalid. Please limit your comments to something at least vaguely polite and constructive...such as, "I never cared for the World of Darkness games." Then leave it at that. Comments like "People still play this?" are not helping anyone. The truth is that for years I personally considered WoD to be superior to 1st and 2nd edition D&D for actual roleplaying. With the introduction of a skill system and more open minded rules 3rd ed. D&D reclaimed a good bit of it's own as a roleplaying game. However, I still think the WoD has an edge in terms of pure roleplaying, character development (in terms of personality and such) and game maturity. By maturity I don't mean distasteful or adult themes...I mean advanced thought and action. I will miss the World of Darkness...I feel like I am losing an old friend in some ways. And yet, as others here have stated, I'm looking forward to what will come from White Wolf Studios next. Cedric</blockquote>
