[QUOTE="Emerikol, post: 9506775, member: 6698278"] I agree and the Viking Hat is a straw man. Anyone can have an opinion and there are times and places to express it. During a session is not one of them. The final decision on the campaign setting is the DMs. Because if I hate the idea the game will never succeed. It will be defeated on day one. My approach though since I can get players for what I like pretty easily is to just be very clear up front about the type of game I want to run. I don't need to play a game that is less fun and which I'd be less good at running when I have all the people and more that are on board with my approach. I think communication is the thing but earlier is better. When I run into a player, and I'm sure there are a few here like this as there are everywhere, who will agree to the session 0 intro but then try to undermine everything your doing every step of the way. Those players get bounced hard right out of the game. [/QUOTE]
