Do you play RPGs at conventions? What types of games do you play and why?
The reason I ask is that I play a lot of WotC RPGA Living Campaigns. It's a good alternate to home games for those with busy schedules. I can play one character and go anywhere in the world and find a table relatively easily.
I'm aware that there are tons of people who play independent games and one-offs at conventions. After talking to a player at one of these, she informed me that she prefers one-offs to any sort of organized gaming (including that of home games).
I thought this was rather strange, since advancement is a large part of what attracts me to RPGs in general.
How common is this attitude?
