    When you give up on RPGs because you hate the system.

    ZEITGEIST How to prepare new PCS to a Zeitgeist campaign (NO SPOILERS)

    The biggest issues may players had, was acting like cops. The most heard phrase during the first few adventures, was "Oh wait, we're the cops" Next time I run the campaign I'd go over constable procedures, arresting people , crime scenes etc. Cause its a big departure from normal DnD adventures.
