Yes, unfortunately. Usually it’s little things like who does what chore or what they’re bickering over lately and how on earth that matters to my game I’ll never know or care. They both also can’t get out of their own way to roleplay their characters and instead roleplay themselves with all the...

Half good. Two of the members in the group are engaged and bring their relationship spats to the table and I’d kinda like to replace them, but they’re also my wife’s and my friends.
