Does the game seem 'dark'? If so, is it too dark and grim? Not enough/could go further? Just about right? Too much/too little brutality and suffering?
Feel free to elaborate on your answers, as always.

Poll # 4 Birthright
Delight is to him- a far, far upward, and inward delight- who against the proud gods and commodores of this earth, ever stands forth his own inexorable self.

I think it's grim enough without becoming a grimdark parody. Bad things happen to good people, sometimes the bad guys win. But no matter what, Roald gets to be a badass.

Re: Poll # 4 Birthright
I'm digging it--I don't think anybody could accuse Ewan of not being grim enough. Is anybody keeping a dead child hostage count, by the way?

Re: Poll # 4 Birthright
I like it is as it is Im not particularly fond of the games or situations that the PCs are completely helpless and can do nothing to save themseves/acomplish their tasks. Obviously I don`t expect it to be a piece of cake and have it ll handed to us. I want the game/quests/tasks to be balanced if possible.

Re: Poll # 4 Birthright
Seems fine so far, although my opinion is of limited value as I've only just started!
