I read the review of this game after I got the Setting. I belive MIDNIGHT to be a great way to get people togeather and have a fun role-playing experience. So many times I have seen that people look at Tolkien's work and they say hey, I am going to have my campagn in a world like middle earth. I know that those people have really influanced the gaming world, but I am sick of Halflings and elves that can never die. I found MIDNIGHT to be a nice change of pace. I like the idea and feel that you can do almost anything in this world. The threats are real, and the stakes are higher! How do you go about saving a world that is already lost?

One thing that I found refreshing was that a small quote stating that books are banned (for understandable reasons) and that ignorance runs rampate through the lands. It's one of the only times that I have gotten the idea that the villains that you are fighting are more intellegent than you, and that includes Orcs. How cool is it that you can have Orcs who are as smart as the PC's.

For those who don't feel that they are getting anything new, will be surprised. I have never been so excited about starting a new campagin.
