I must admit being disappointed by this product.
I am a fan of the first edition and have followed the production of this new edition from afar.
I was very excited that Free League would use its in-house system and I think mechanically there is a nice improvement.
However, visually I am extremely disappointed and for me it is a big step backwards. I just don't like the "vibe" of this edition.
In addition, this starter set focuses only on the hobbits and the shire. It could be nice but the adventures are not good and childish. Adventures are only meant to be played by hobbits and I have to admit that none make me want to play them. It is sad because almost every adventures from the previous edition made me want to play it.
I will probably buy the core rulebook but to me, this is a disappointment
