That is to say, I love what Star Wars is more than I like the films themselves. Add to this the fact that Star Wars D6 is one of my all time favorite RPGs - very likely my absolute favorite mechanically - and my love of Star Wars and Star Wars gaming will never go away.<br /><br />Right now, it simply isn't strong with The Force.

It wasn't inmediate or a burst of (fan) rage, but a growing sentiment that had started some time earlier. I still watched Solo and I liked it a lot more, but it certainly wasn't memorable. I choice of words is not casual: I still <i>like</i> Star Wars. I just don't <i>love</i> it as I used to do. <br /><br />The same happened with Star Wars gaming. I tried every thing to like Edge of the Empire, which my friends liked alot. I have played it with 3 different GMs, I switched characters, and I run a couple of adventures myself (which were very well received), but I still find it... boring. I the X-Wing miniature game had come out when I was 18, it would have been a dream come true. Now I find it just... nice. <br /><br />I still hope something would respark my love of Star Wars. Rogue One (the second half of it, anyway) was amazing, and I watched it with all the excitement of the all days, so there is hope. But, for the moment, I'll just wait and see if any of the new films, shows, etc. is any good.Miguel de Rojashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15762364029464337239noreply@blogger.com
