I suspect I'm not alone but I am one of those Star Wars/RPG junkies who has been buying and digesting RPG's since the WEG days, however due to a combination of work/life/social group, I haven't played an RPG since the late 80's.

However, at the weekend I finally got an opportunity to play the EotE Starter Game at a local game store with an awesome, awesome bunch of guys and man, what a fun experience. Having read the rules relentlessly (to say nothing of the sourcebooks and adventures, etc) I had a good sense of how, mechanically at least, the game would play but boy, seeing those narrative dice in action? That was really something

That's it, just still buzzing a few days on and wanted to share

Yes!! Welcome to the awesome! Was there any particular result that sold you? What was the situation?

My cousins got EotE last summer and I visited, got hooked immediately. So much fun and we weren't even playing it right! (difficulty dice? what are those?)

No, it was the whole thing - we played "Escape from Mos Shuuta" and, having read the adventure text subsequently, it went pretty much by the numbers but was just a hoot. The freedom to interpret dice results and have fun with that as well as 'be part of' the SW universe was just awesome.
