This has - genuinely - set my pulse racing. I have Christmassy amounts of anticipation.

All right. Take my money and ship.... 🙂

[French Desperate WindChild]

thanks a lot ! But of course you expose yourself to questions 😛

 

Quantity :

- If you remove the pictures, and focus on content, does it change the ratio ?

Quality :

- Is the content about the same than in previous editions (for those who were in previous edition, I see of course new content for new gods), or do we see a large part of change / deepest information than in the previous edition ?

 

 

For example I was frustrated by the new rqg scenario of the rainbow mounds. I expected some new revealed secrets, a kind of sequel to the previous scenario (something I enjoyed with the different stages of Apple lane for example and the evolution of the npcs); not what I consider (other may disagree, it is just my taste), more a new version of the same scenario.

 

I m pretty sure I will enjoy the discovery of new things, but will it be a lot or just few ?

Art is content.

Of course but I mean text/explanation

[Squaredeal Sten]

I will want it, not because I am under sone illusion that it will have all new content for, say, Orlanth,

But because

It will have the adaptations and updates from RQ2 to RQiG;

It will have many minor cults that were not in the original material;

And it will all be in one place, not in fanzines that are out of print.

Unknown. Someone would have to assess number of pictures/maps per deity. All deities, I believe, were supposed to have an image, so that should largely be a constant. Lhankor Mhy showed a worshiper. The Grain Goddesses had a map. My suspicion is that it would balance out on the whole but I don't have access to the book yet to give a definitive answer.
