The sorts of games I love
I love, and play, all sorts of games. But there is one kind of game that I truly love.
In a nutshell I like games that head into the direction of "story games".
Boundaries between the DM and the player blur, players become either, through their characters or just out of character, more than just passive participants. They're co-writers of a story.
And the DM role shifts from being the all-seeing-all-controlling arbiter (AKA "God") to a fast-on-their-feet facilitator.
I don't think this is the default preference really, most people prefer their lines between the DM and the player to be a bit more cut and dried.
But you like what you like, right?
