Subject: Re: Even More Crossovers...

Hey I agree that crossovers are kinda dumb as well... but I was also thinking
of making a thread that began back in Barsaive, and continued through time and
reappearing in 2055... I don't have any specifics on it... but hey, its worth
a shot. It's not like I'm gonna bring a bunch of street sam back to Barsaive
and have them kick ass...

*shrug* I prefer the "purer" games myself.... but I think that a little bit of
creativity can make an intelligent crossover work. It should be more than just
"Let's take a bunch of powerful characters back in time and see how much
damage they can do to a primitive society..." that, IMO, is what is stupid
about crossovers. But a little thought and creativity can really make a
worthwhile adventure...
