>>>No one has questioned anyone's right to have an opinion.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
>>>I also don't see a bunch of PEG fanboys defending this game.>>>>>>>>>
What exactly needs to be defended? Believe it or not people can actually discuss things on forums.I wasn't aware anything needed to be defended.Why would it need to be defended? Well, quit saying it's wrong to complain about the price then. That's a general consensus for the book. The SJ review from their Pyramid zine said the same thing about the price. Over all it was a pretty positive review. You should make a effort and read it.
>>>>>>I do see someone complaining about a brand new game because it costs too much. When it costs exactly the same as the PHB, DMG, MM, GURPS, M&M, Star Trek, Kalamar, and LOTR, and less than Spycraft, Star Wars, Silver Age Sentinels, FRCS, and Hero.>>>>>>>
Well it seems to me almost everyone said the price is a little high. Even on the general forum if you would have read it.
>>>I walk into the game store, I see a sea of hardbacks for $25-$45.>>>>>>>>
So what. That's a gimmie.
>>>Then, the original reviewer fails to mention what he thought it _should_ have cost. If $30 is too high, what's the right price?>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Like I said. What's the point? It's not up to me or you. Shane needs to charge a little higher price because of his company situation. He's already stated that.
>>>>At that point, it's not criticism. It's whining.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
So now discussing aspects of a product line is now whining. You are a real hoot. You make me laugh.Shane seems pretty cool with the constructive criticism that SW has been getting. Believe it or not it's healthy. No one is saying that it's not a good game. It seems to me you are taking things on the personal level. I'm sorry you seem to feel that way.
