Re: Why are so many people upset that Cryptic is only using the Champions IP?
Something that should always be remembered is that the product we get is coming from companies. Companies may do a lot to look out for their core customer group, but they ultimately need to make a dollar.
What I mean by that is that having the HERO system in all its complex and convoluted glory will scare many more casual gamers off, and deter people that don't want to learn a whole rules system to play a game. Using some ideas, like the ability to customize effects or get skills that traditionally belong to another archetype at a higher cost, is wonderful. But throwing the BBB at new players, younger players, casual players will lead to a player base way too small to support its own cost.
