I’m glad you’re excited about Hidden Sun. I’ve had a lot of fun writing it.

As for my old group Malcolm’s right, that was a long time ago. I did have fun with them. We played a lot of interesting sessions. You didn’t get too attached to your characters and every adventure was a dungeon crawl. Some really like that style of game.

It’s not for me though. I like campaigns where the PCs are the main characters. I like seeing how said characters develop over the course of multiple sessions. I like party teamwork as opposed to competition. I like keeping things fast and loose. That’s the style I prefer.

Objectively I don’t think one’s better than the other. Subjectively I like the way I do things . It sounds like we have similar tastes, it’d be cool to have you in a con game sometime.

Thanks for the well wishes. I really want to see this book in print. At the same time I agree that it’s better to be late and good than quick and stupid.

Okay. I’ve been curious about this game for a while. Now I want it. I wish you a speedy and fruitful development process (although I’ll take fruitful over speedy).

Keep in mind that from what I know of Chris’ gaming background this was a looooong time ago. I think this was a powerful formative experience for him in, like the 80s/early 90s, but when I first met him maybe 15 years ago he was applying the style he enjoys now to In Nomine.

I totally don’t want to detract form how awesome this sounds, because it sounds _really_ awesome, but man, this:

“In my old group she would have just died. Everyone would laugh and the game would continue while I found a new sheet.”

left my jaw on the floor. Excepting games like Paranoia (or very backstabby games of Amber) , I’ve never played a game where that kind of behavior would be ok. I don’t want ot speak ill of people I don’t know, but I admit I’m totally thinking it.
