Okay, forgot about FIAT. But with POTA and LOT, as much as I love those two D-Mods, as well as with both QFDs and AGAE, you can really tell they're not from the newest bunch of D-Mods.

Anyway, I don't think "epic" should be a quality judgment. The description on the Files page is plainly about length. That's what really bothers me - it's treated like an exclusive club with no firm criteria for entry. There should be a clear standard for what is an epic and what isn't so that it doesn't become a dumb political thing like it is.

I never meant the definition of Epic should be a quality judgement. I was just pointing out that the times are different, and that quality is amongst the things that have changed. The files page says that an Epic is "around the size or larger than the original game". Now when I think D-Mod size, I think 5 things: How big the map is, how long does the D-Mod take to finish, the amount of scripts that are required for the game, how much is there to do in the gameplay, and the overall "feel" of the adventure which Metatarasal spoke about.
