So glad you've kept everything around. Now if I could only manage to convince the remaining LOA to join me on IPY.

I've never been a big fan of most of the White Wolf series. I have heard that people have integrated Combat into their existing SFSTG campaigns, but mostly people homebrew weapons rules.

If I already have WoD: Combat, do I need Contenders? Thank you I was wondering: I see that the weapons rules for Street Fighter are in Contenders.

From a design standpoint WoW didn't do anything particularly innovative except that it distilled the lowest common denominator of all game elements and packaged it in an attractive, working (mostly, very important and not all that common) game with mass appeal, so from a business perspective it's an overwhelming success. I don't enjoy it though. Player culture was pretty much the same as in EQ and its clones (WoW is really one at heart), except that since there are so many more players you're far more likely to run into asshats. I'm playing LOTRO now and actually sorta enjoying it, except for the housing system and the simplistic crafting which for some reason a lot of people consider a grind, since they're probably comparing it to WoW crafting which is by comparison a Duplo kit where all the pieces fit together in only one way.

I loved UO. I played WoW for 10 minutes and decided it wasn't for me. I'd love to hear what you think of WoW from the perspective of game design and player culture. Mu! I loved UO.
