That is, after players would reasonably have begun to build their characters.I would be unlikely to want to play Conan or CPR or the like. I have D&D and Shadowrun, which allow me to be stuff that isn't human.Sure, I'm absolutely certain that some folks would love such a game. The only "one source only" game that would interest me would be a divine game, since that's well aligned with my interests. MAAAAYBE an arcane-only game. Other than that, I just don't generally find the other power sources particularly interesting.Sounds like we're on the same page for #3 and #4. I have no interest in playing pre-gens except--as you say--one-shots.For me, it's again a matter of it getting sprung on me late. I've played Dark Sun, which is essentially "What if desert-only?" but that was, as said, announced from the beginning. I chose "arctic" specifically because it has something in common with something I like (Narnia), but is not something I'm super excited to play through on its own. (Doubly so because it strongly implies "survival will be a huge challenge" which I find to be extremely dull, frustrating, unrewarding play.)</blockquote>
