Book Reviews of The World of Darkness
Book Review: Forget 4th edition D&D, here's the beef
Summary: 5 Stars
Ok so it's not a fantasy setting but a horror setting. With a little twiking, it can be that or anything.
I played the world of darkness setting from the beginning so when the new one (this one) came out I spent over two years before I would look at it let alone buy it. BIG mistake! This is one of the most eleqante systems out there. What makes this truly amazing is that even my 70 year old mother can learn this game in under a couple of hours and yet the game does not suffer from being too simple (ie "4th edition D&D). Perhaps what makes this game stand above D&D is that YOU make the character you want. There is no rolling of the dice to determine your scores. You want a 5 strength? then do it.
Summary of The World of Darkness
Where the Shadows Grow LongWe live our days completely ignorant of the true terrors lurking around us. Only rarely do our experiences draw back the veil of shadows and reveal the horror in our midst. These glimpses into the supernatural can cause us to retreat into comforting lies -- "There are no such things as monsters" -- or stir our morbid curiosity. Only a few, however, can overcome their fear and dare to look deeper.
Abandon Hope All Who Enter
The World of Darkness Rulebook introduces a version of our contemporary world where the supernatural is real. Players join to tell tales of mystery and horror, where theme, mood and plot are more important to a character's experiences than his weapons or equipment. Inside are rules for character creation, task resolution, combat and any activity your character attempts as he delves into the shadows.
