[QUOTE="happyhermit, post: 8119303, member: 6834463"] Sooo, I say: "Needing to re-skin [U]a whole lot of stuff[/U], ..." within a certain context, and you say that it means the same thing as "someone asking to reskin Firebolt to cold damage, ...". It doesn't, that should be absolutely clear with a cursory reading, one thing is not a whole lot of stuff. As for me being an "Eeyore player", maybe I guess. I certainly have a hell of a lot of fun with ttrpgs, but to be honest I have a lot of fun with most activities I engage in, and I laugh more than just about anyone I know, so it isn't saying much really. I don't have a lot of things that can "suck the vim and vigour" from me with regards to ttrpgs though, so I don't really have that problem (there are a few but they are mostly unrelated to this topic). Certainly there are a lot of campaigns/GMs/Systems I have ABSOLUTELY no desire to play in right now, but it doesn't cause me any issues, I just don't play in them and everyone is happy. I don't agree to join them, then try to turn them into the kind of game I actually want to play. FWIW though, most people who have played in games I have run would find it hilarious to have someone put "play the game my way" into my mouth. My preferred style of game lets the characters do whatever they want to an apparently (looking at other games) extreme degree, and there is no such thing as "a plot" that the GM has prepared. But that's in-play, anything prior ie; group/gm world building can have any restrictions, mostly because anyone can simply opt out and make room for somebody else who is more interested in "buying in" and respecting the magic circle.
