Properly summarize your setting/your favorite setting in the smallest amount of words possible.
Then rate others settings based purely on these summaries, would you play in them? Would you read about them?

>>46725647
What edition?
>>46725626
Fuck yeah they are
>>46723205
The conflict between orcs and elves derailed the setting so hard one of the primal goddesses of the setting is willing to straight-up replace the entire timeline to get rid of everyone she doesn't like.

Operators operating operations, in TIE fighters.
>>46725674
If I were to play such a game-- and I reiterate that I cannot and will not confirm or deny that I know what you're talking about-- then I would most likely use teh second edition, which is a straight improvement over the 1st.
>>46725713
I really have no idea, but

that sounds like world of Warcraft right there

But what about the mostly finished third edition, which may or may not be in Kickstarter at the moment?A 2e game won't work in 3e unless either they or you convert the schools.

>>46725939
If I were to indulge your hypothetical and assume this "third edition" is indeed in the works, I expect I would have little trouble converting the schools over, given how simple the underlying mechanics of this alleged game are alleged to be.
That said, I doubt any such a thing as a "third edition" will ever exist, sounds like some crazy conspiracy shit to me.

I used to like that game, until it's writers told me to fire myself as a fan. Fuck those faggots, and fuck you.
Cowboys and Dragons.
>>46726101
How did you manage to get that to happen?
>>46726122
Probably by having an opinion that they disagree with. The official forums are a damn hugbox.
>>46726053
>>46726101
Also their weird treatment of gender politics on their site, in a game where you can literally design your own body.
>>46726122
>>46726133
They announced that if you don't agree with Social Justice, they don't want you using their game. They literally used the phrase "fire yourself as our fan". I don't mind people picking sides in political disputes, but if they want to be faggots about it then that's just obnoxious.

Like, anything in particular they said you had to agree with, or did they actually just say "Agree with social justice or fire yourself as a fan."
I'm confused here. Also, companies that deal entirely in these types of goods should avoid politics like the fucking plague.
>>46726207
The game in question would quite be what it is without politics though.
>>46726207
Oddly enough I never disagreed with any of their stances, it was their "you're with us or fuck off" attitude that made me hate them and, by extension, their game.
