If it’s well written, there’s plenty of room for it to stand out from the competition in people’s minds, when they recommend it to others, too.<br /><br />Sounds like you already have some plans for this and developed ideas for it, when you offered to put the first commenter’s name into it. If that’s the case, how large would something like this be (rooms, levels, sandbox encounters outside the dungeon) and how long do you think it would take to produce and cost?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15495872211886916367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1801483473113363785.post-67043536013922389082014-03-23T16:43:45.174-04:002014-03-23T16:43:45.174-04:00There is always room for more!There is always room for more!Keith Sloanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07319879076978887933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1801483473113363785.post-60153454832983261612014-03-23T16:24:02.956-04:002014-03-23T16:24:02.956-04:00Go for it!
