But, a bit similar to your case (though a lot less extreme), I no longer had that on a regular basis with my old in-person group before the pandemic. And if I wanted to play a new system, I had to introduce it to the group and handle most of the rules.In contrast, not only do I get to play more systems I am interested in playing, I also get to play more regularly and I am actually a player most of the time. This is a very refreshing experience that has brought back a lot of enthusiasm for role-playing for me. Also, the same spirit I remember from playing in-person became more frequent over time in my online groups.In the end: if online playing isn't really for you, that that's just the way you are wired and perfectly fine. But it does seem your current situation is less than ideal and is eating up your enthusiasm for RPGs in general. So I feel you need a bigger change or you will completely burn out on RPGs.</blockquote>
