Converted from Phorums BB System
Howdy,
**I am heartly glad you are back, Kester! I've missed you!

**
*blushes*
Aw, schucks.
**I'm really dissapointed that you haven't been able to catch onto the Chargen system. In the next revision I'll have to run through an example character or something.**
That makes two of us!
It's not that the Chargen system is too difficult to understand, let me make that perfectly clear. As I've said before my basic approach to looking at RPG rules is to go into the text like the average gamer would... quick glances.
At a glance, I am sorry to say, I really did't get a solid grip on what was going on.
It was dang frustrating and I don't mind saying it made me feel like a bit of a twit for a while there.
That said, if time is taken to read every word, meaning approach the game text as a GM would, then a general idea of what should be going on can be grasped. But at the end of the day when it came time to write my analysis up for the review I couldn't help but feel I either ain't getting it or there needs to be a simple example that lays everything out for the terminally dense. ;-)
Anyone else feel that way or was it just me?
That said this is a nice game with great potential, bit too much white space though.
Kind Regards,
Kester Pelagius
