[QUOTE="mythusmage, post: 1564534, member: 571"] They were still [i]games[/i]. They tried putting the emphasis on other areas, as [i]games[/i]. I am proposing that we rethink the entire [i]game[/i] thing. That is, make the hobby, as a hobby, more inviting to prospective participants, to potential players if you must, and so create a larger customer base. Which would make 2nd, 3rd, and even marginal tier efforts more worthwhile. D&D® is what I intend to reinvent, D&D® and other RPGs in its wake. To bring more participants into the hobby and so broadening its audience and the audience for other roleplaying guides. Because D&D® is the one people think of when the roleplaying hobby is mentioned. My goal is to get people in the hobby to rethink what they do. To encourage those willing to listen to look at the hobby in a new way, and so make it more accessible to the general public. Am I disappointed it D&D®? Damn right. It's like using a turbine engine to power an old biplane. I say we use it for a new jet aircraft and see what comes of it. [/QUOTE]
