I just feel that a lot of Eclipse Phase's front-loading is actually unnecessary (1000 points along pre-paid Aptitudes, 50 skills and traits, at different point-cost rates scales...) I just want to scrap the avalanche of crunch while keeping the cool stuff. I do realise some people like the detail that extreme side of the curve grants but its not going to work for me or my group. I like some ideas like Margin of Success/Failure but not how they're implemented. I like professions and interests but these should be a series of optional traits.
Cheers,
Chris.
