Useful. Sure, it seems like easy stuff to think of, but it's good if you've got a group of players going room to room and want to sprinkle in random details instead of just saying "the usual stuff" all the time.
I am very disappointed with G-Core as a "modern FASERIP" game because there is no FASERIP. The renamed Abilities and ranks just sits entirely wrong with me because I still play the original game but like the idea of new content and updated rules. For me, every game mechanic reference ends up with me having to convert the renamed Abilities as I go. It was a waste of my money and I'll never buy anything with the Dilly Green Bean Games name on it again.
We're sorry you didn't enjoy the product. But we will point out that in the description on DriveThru that it doesn't say it is straight FASERIP. Drop us an e-mail and we will refund you.
