Like, if you've established some clear constraints on what the game is to be about....whether these are determined by the setting or by some kind of theme or what have you.....then people should factor that in to their character creation, no? If I know I'm playing Five Torches Deep or some other OSR style dungeon delving game, I'm not going to spend a ton of time coming up with a background and specific goals for my character that don't involve raiding dungeons.If I'm playing Blades in the Dark, I'm goig to absolutely craft a background and personal goals for my PC, all within the expectation that he is a member of a criminal crew on the rise in Doskvol.</blockquote>
