Ha, the Shadows of the UK expansion for World of Darkness 2 is utterly ridiculous. To begin with, the cover shows the Clock Tower and a red telephone box (just to indicate that it is, in fact, London), but what really made me laugh was the 'suggested reading' for getting a flavour of the UK. These being: Trainspotting, the Mabinogion, Neverwhere, Dog Soldiers, Ultraviolet, 28 Days Later and the Works of William Shakespeare. Yes, because that will give you a huge indication of what the United Kingdom is totally not like. Every time I try and get into the new World of Darkness, they do something incredibly stupid that just makes me laugh, and then completely puts me off playing.
The owner of this journal would like it to be known that at this point they scampered off to eat bread.
