The book is beautiful, I'd even say it's stunning.
I can't wait to use some of these things against my group of players.
My only complaint is that the name of the "evil" side is: Cult of Evil, which feels a bit lazy to me.
I wouldn't recommend this book to everyone, but if you're interested in giants and want to use them in your game, definitely consider buying it.
Knížka je velmi krásná, řekl bych že se blíží i nádheře.
sám se nemůžu dočkat, až budu moci některé věci použít proti mé skupině hráčů.
Moje jediná výtka je, že název ”zlé” strany je: Cult of Evil, což se mi jeví jako odfláknuté.
Knížku bych nedoporučil každému, ale pokud vás zajímají obři a chcete je ve své hře použít, rozhodně popřemýšlejte o koupi.
Giantlore is surprisingly well-crafted—nothing spectacular, but definitely not a disaster. I expected a bit more, but it feels like the latest sourcebooks are being rushed. The Dragon sourcebook is absolute trash, which is probably why this one looks decent in my eyes. I’d definitely recommend sticking to the older stuff instead.
Giantlore, který je kupodivu celkem dobře zpracovaný, žádná sláva ale ani vyloženě tragédie. Očekával jsem trohcu více, ale tak nějak mi přijde, že teď ty poslední příručky jsou značně odfláklé. Dračí příručka je vyloženě odpad, tak možná proto v mých očích vypadá tato tak nějak obstojně. Rozhodně bych opět doporučil spíše sáhnout do historie.
