Message: <blockquote data-quote="Bendris Noulg" data-source="post: 1547281" data-attributes="member: 6398">Actually, my forgetting that it's there because it's badly written is no substitute, which is why I'm glad a few folks popped in with specific examples.  Of course, this doesn't change the fact that the material is shunted into its own section rather than being included alongside the rules it pertains to (i.e., include a "Role" section with the Prestige Class instead of discussing the roles in a seperate and easily forgotten chapter, something that continues to seperate a good number of OGL publishers from WotC...).I think another thing is that reading something in 2E that was specifically tied to Greyhawk, any of Toril's regions, Planescape, Athas, or any other setting never stopped it from being usable or inspirational.  Perhaps, in their attempt to remain generic, the material starts to gain a "thinly thought out" feeling that has the opposite effect than was intended (i.e., instead of inspiring me to "make it my own", I'm actually uninspired and thus don't really consider it). Actually, I've been saying the later (re-read last couple of posts between me and WizarDru).No no no no no no no...What I'm saying is that if you are playing D&D without any role-playing, you are not playing a role-playing game (although you are without a doubt still playing D&D).Do I gotta repeat this again..?  Please please don't make me repeat this again...</blockquote>
