Twilight 2000 1.0 background - not because we thought the 2013 background stunk, but for nostalgia reasons.

I never understood why some people are so quick to throw out the baby with the bathwater - not just here, but in all the RPG industry. If someone doesn't like the setting, but the rules are just fine, why not use them, and make your own background? Excepting for T:2000, I don't know of a system that I ever ran where I used the background as presented. At best I tweaked it a bit, at worst I chucked it out completely and wrote my own, or took another background for the game.

my money, my opinion.......

Absolutely, I'm not trying to take it away from you. But you and others haven't even *played* the game, and are panning it, which doesn't make sense to me.

Nothing I say is going to make you pick it up and give it a whirl, so we'll have to agree to disagree.
