Re: [RPG]: Dark Sun, reviewed by The Illustrious Number 6 (4/4)

Speaking as a Dark Sun fanatic, I thought this was a very good review. I disagree with certain elements (such as the lack of color, or the value of the character "tree"), but those are matters of personal taste we differ on. When it comes to the details, your review is spot on.

As for AD&D, I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole nowadays, but I still love the Dark Sun setting. I'm currently running a Dark Sun campaign with GURPS and it's working out great.
