German player here: The joke about TDE being like paying taxes is not a joke, it's the truth. The only question is, who stands in line at the museum for a still life, even if it's well-painted? Over the 30 years or so if its existence, it has amassed an impressive (or rather, oppressive) amount of detailed world description (most of which is probably only available in German), and clearly a lot of effort has gone into it. They have an extremely detailed world described into the last nook and cranny of their generic not-Europe fantasy setting next to not-Viking Scandinavia and not-Arabia, complete with forest-dwelling elves and mountain-dwelling dwarves (it's as stereotypical as it sounds). The setting is the RPG equivalent of a masterfully executed still life. It's far less combat-focused than D&D is, however. It doesn't really offer anything innovative, it's just HEAVY, but at least you can create a baker or smith's apprentice with good detail. The system started out as a fantasy heartbreaker and has evolved into an overly convoluted mess full of needless complexity.
