[QUOTE="MechaPilot, post: 6828291, member: 82779"] Can we please not play the "most people" card. We've been around on this issue before, and we both know full well that each of us are "just one person" and that neither one of us has hard and fast data on what people think when they hear fantasy. Some people likely think of Harry Potter first, while others are more likely to think of Tolkien, and still others of Conan, and so on. All I said is this: 1) that Tolkien fantasy doesn't define MY concept of D&D, but it is still a valid way to play D&D, 2) that playing monstrous races can be fun, and 3) that the heart of the game is having fun. All games exist for that very purpose. That is the one condition where people can say that something is "wrong" in a game is when people are not having fun while playing it. Is there anything in those three points that you can actually say is inaccurate or incorrect? [/QUOTE]
