[QUOTE="Wraith Form, post: 2031220, member: 10789"] *gasp* They...they...[i]don't[/i]?!? Seriously, though, I've been in Arkham's shoes for a long, long time. I've felt burned by Mongoose products in the past, and even vowed (after I bought B5's core book) to never purchase Mongoose again. Then I went an bought the original, core Conan book. Whooops. That just sealed the deal for me. Now that I've read this thread, I have to admit a certain shift in my feelings. I'd [i]like[/i] to like the Jeremiah core book since I enjoy the show. I'd [i]love[/i] to buy the other Conan suppliments (despite being a bit high-priced). I'm just wary of the slipshod editing and oft-kooky grammatical structures I've seen in Mongoose's previous products. But people change, as do companies, and we all deserve a second chance. It sounds (from Mongoose Matt's post above) that they not only acknowledge their (rather large) mistakes regarding editing but are genuinely interested in correcting them, especially after the first run of the Conan core book. Unlike Arkham, I will look at the Jeremiah core book in my local RPG store, and I'll flip through the Conan suppliments. If I still see the same ol' crap, then Mongoose has lost a customer for good. If the writing and editing is better....well, make room for me on the wagon, you know? [/QUOTE]
