Quote from: jhkim on May 06, 2024, 09:38:44 PMThe current spate of superhero movies since 2008 is annoying, but it's quite parallel to the dominance of westerns for many decades.
Quote from: Crazy_Blue_Haired_Chick on May 06, 2024, 01:32:13 PMI checked Drive Thru RPG, and it's still featured on the front page.
I know that there is a lot of trash that won't sell more than 10 copies on that site but it's still an accomplishment either way.
Quote from: WERDNA on May 06, 2024, 01:09:10 AMPundit, unless you've fixed it there is an issue of remaining L&D text in the magical items:
"51-52 Hermit's Robes: Albion has a long
tradition of many saintly monks and holy
men and women who retired to live the lives
of hermits. These holy men's vestments
(usually plain wool or sack-cloth)..."
Anons on 4ch also pointed out capitalization is inconsistent in the demonic powers section.
Purtoks seem to missing their alignment.

In classic Hollywood, there were 44 Charlie Chan movies and 36 Abbot & Costello movies. Roy Rogers starred in over a hundred singing cowboy movies. Going back further, Shakespeare was far from original - most of his works were remakes of prior plots.
These were the days before television and DVDs so movie series took that roll. However, even those extreme examples prove a point. Charlie Chan was in 44 movies during a period of 20 years (1929-1949). Abbott & Costello were in movies for 16 years (1940-1956). But today we have franchises making new content that are 40 or 50 years old, or even longer with Star Trek being 58.
So even compared to the extremes of the past, we have entered an entirely new era of exploiting IP far beyond anything that came before.
