It's definitely a work in progress, no question, but it's got serious potential.
After the gobbo fight at the gate, when eavesdropping on Aradin and Zevlor, Aradin was pretty squeaky clean while my party looked like we'd just crawled out of a sewer pipe. We'd rested immediately prior the fight, while according to the narrative, Aradin clearly hadn't.
There's work to be done on it, for sure, but I think it's got a lot of potential.
