| Originality | The idea of throwing humans into a fantasy world unlike anything they've ever seen before isn't new. The circumstances in which it happens in this game put a really interesting spin on it. By having such a large group of humans (the majority of Earth's population by the sounds of things) this RPG has given a new approach to an old idea. |
