And verily, did Bob Tockley hastily scribble thusly...
| Earthdawn, initially designed to ride some of the popularity of Shadowrun
|with the hints about the two being intertwined somehow, became a gaming
|leech. Though it was a game system of its own right it only really managed
|to hold in as a seller because of its ties to Shadowrun. Finally, even
|that couldn't sustain it (you can only go so far with the IEs before you
|run out of interesting historical figures) and it died. End of story. Now
|I hope everyone can forget half the stupid IE ideas and ED crossovers with
|half-horror IEs and so on, and get on with a decent game.

I *don't* think you like Earthdawn...
I can't quite put my finger on what makes me think this though....

Hmmmmm...

I happen to quite like the game.
I might have even bought more of the modules if I'd had a disposable income
at the time... But, I've been a student for 6 years...
