[QUOTE="JPL, post: 2727262, member: 1964"] Haven't seen most of those...but yeah. Those Charmed girls certainly are healthy-looking girls. Ghostbusters is a more silly and light-hearted than how I picture Shadow Chasers...closer in tone, in fact, to what seems to me like the default UrbArc setting. "The Real Ghostbusters" cartoon would make a hell of a campaign, though, wouldn't it? I always told my gaming buddies that because everything I run goes pulpy and surreal on me, if I ever ran a Dark*Matter campaign, it would start out like Mudler and Scully, but by the end someone would be riding the Loch Ness Monster like a horse and throwing grenades at yeti shock troopers. So I wanna suggest that campaign model for d20 Modern 2.0 --- "Dark*Matter, but you ride the Loch Ness Monster like a horse." ---- As to Urban Arcana in general...yeah, it's "D&D world leaks into real world," and people who enjoy that sort of thing will find it is the sort of thing they enjoy. I think the book does a good job of developing that concept --- but if the initial concept is not something you're interested in, then no, you probably won't dig the end result. [/QUOTE]
