Game Geeks #54 World of Darkness: Book of Spirits

[Searif]

Is this the same spirit realm from W:tF?

[stevep119]

i'm looking for nwod players in cornwall any out there

[DRSchuchman]

Why does he show Old World of Darkness books when he's talking about how this book ties in to other games? Different system. Similar, but completely revamped. *snicker*

[pugknowspro]

Just giving the watcher something different to look at, again it wasn't Kurt it was me the producer who put them on.

Rob

[DRSchuchman]

That's okay. We still like what he was saying. It was just a little confusing. Lol!

[fifi20000oooo]

-_-

[Telewic82]

Well, is it really that good? In my country, the review I have read rather blasted it, stating that it is weak, cheap and generally shitty, not to mention bad glue, cover and many many grammatical and punctuation mistakes. So as you have easier access to it, could you tell me how it looks like, becouse frankly, I do not believe reviewers because I know that everybody has different taste.

[Bobbo110]

I love this book^^ The spirit world is very cool =3 I'm even going to use it in one of my mortal games.

[vinkeveen2]

is this Old or New WOD? or both?

[TacticusPrime]

New. Could be converted maybe, but I've never tried so I don't know.

[mangafeak]

I think its nice to know wich of the books that are usefull to setting for mortals. Just starting my own WOD play and is full of ideas and then agien blank so I think its nice to hear more about it :)

Thx a lot its awsome ^^

[beatboxpeej]

Nice review. I dont know If I should buy Exalted 2nd Edition, could you review it too?

[Jackth71]

Dear Kurt, That was an excellent review!Thanks for the review & the ideas that you also put forth in your review. A**** Keep up the good work.

[acm4bass]

So what I want to know is, If your a Gamer what do you play for fun?

[knwiegel]

Good question. Right now I'm wrapping a Torchwood-style game using Con X and other full unisystem games. Next we're likely going to a BRP run Serenity game and this summer, a Savage worlds-powered Fantasy Game.

I've been a unisystem guy for a long time. Its time for a small break.

[MoltenPlastic]

Are you a Torchwood fan then?

I ask because Torchwood gets alot of hate, especially from die-hard Whovians...but I personally feel that most of it (not all of it, mind you) is somewhat undeserved.

[pete3great]

won't be buying it. all this "new" WoD stuff is crap. the changes they made to Mage alone... *shudder*

[ConayR]

Why did you guys use the old WoD line covers instead of the new ones in this clip? Other than that - another great review. :-]

[pugknowspro]

to be truthful, I didn't know any better. Please don't blame Kurt for my ignorance.

Rob

[ConayR]

I figured you're the one to blame. ;-> That's no big deal IMO, really. :-) On the editing note - I miss that "put another cover/book in Kurt's hands" effect you did a lot in the past.

[MoltenPlastic]

Ha ha! :)

I actually thought it was statement for those that don't like the NWoD games: "The ideas in this book are good for the Old World of Darkness as well".

Thanks for clarifying.

[Amerginn671]

Where are you folks based out of? I wonder if we'll see you at GenCon.

In regards to WoD are you or Kurt running any of the genres? I sense that your gaming group is pro-mortals akin to something like Call of Cthulu. I wouldn't mind seeing a review off the new Mage game.

[Amerginn671]

While all the books can be used cross-genre, the Book of Spirits is strongly geared to the Werewolf and then Mage, and lastly the Mortals line.

Vampire can pull from it simply due to the how spirits can color the real world and affect how mortals and vampires react to their environment.

[Jonazzz]

Thanks Kurt. You are my heroe!

[Theophrastus]

FIRST! good job Kurt
