25th Anniversary version

[ampersand]

personally i think it will just be a totally different game that has tried to ride on the back of a classic game....will it be any good? i doubt it wont be anything as good as the original, sure its got cool miniatures. but that doesnt always make a great game.

Decent is a good example of that, the game is way too one sided to the evil player that its almost impossible!

[knightkrawler]

well I have been out of the loop, so I will look it up. The real question is, will it be any good?

What, the thread? Oh, that one's a treat. Invite four friends and read it together, it will be more fun than playing GameZone's ... game ... with all that bad conscience and bitter tastes in mouths at the table.

[Baylor_OgreBane]

Can it really be that bad?
Maybe the best way to play it would be to cannibalise it into the original game as much as it can.

[knightkrawler]

But why?
There will be little new, and that little new is not fitting in style.
The concept of box art and the Barbarian figure alone make me shiver. This is really personal for me, I deeply deeply hate GameZone and this retort ooze of greed and incapacity.
Read the thread, I dare you.

awww man this thread had me excited its only old news

I think I'll buy the game and send it to knightkrawler on his birthday... just to be a troll!

But really good or bad... The issue isn't really about the gameplay.
The general consensus is that we don't like a company "stealing" the brand name - I say steal. Being shut down twice proves they have no right to the name. It's as legal as committing murder in international waters!
Then they proceeds to make a product that has none of the "feel" or aesthetics of the original.
I guess you can say it has turned into a more principal thing.

[knightkrawler]

They will certainly declare it to be.
