Re: [BNW] New Power Packages

Just as a note, while I can't speak for anyone else, to the best of my 
knowledge I've never made any claim that a weak power package = a weak 
character.

In fact, you can have strong characters without any Delta power packages at 
all.

That doesn't really excuse the fact that a power package, due to poor 
design, testing, or whatever other reasons, is well below the average "power 
level" established by the game itself, or fails to provide unique and 
interesting aspects in its own right. As new packages come out, the problems 
with Sneak seem to become more and more obvious (if Hacker and Charmer are 
any example).

You can make the greatest, most strongly-developed personality for a 
character in any game system, no matter how crappy.  That doesn't mean you 
should overlook problems with the game system.
