[QUOTE="Voneth, post: 216675, member: 1016"] Oh I agree, but there are two sides to the story, some people who don't like DND because of the perception and then some who are fine that perception and wouldn't have it any other way. The rough part is that the "default" player that I meet in my area are the dungeon hack version and before 3rd ed I was burned out on ALL roleplaying because of these guys. "I don't see any roleplaying in your games," these player said. "What about that whole 'your missing brother storyline?'" "Yeah, that's my point, quit wasting our time with that stuff, put more roleplaying in it, stuff like collapsing floors if we don't guess the right code!" they said. "Uh, that puzzle solving, dude, not roleplaying." None of these guys had a college education, but they were the only roleplayers in the tiny town I was at and they about broke me with their "my way or highway" attitude on gaming. I learned sometimes it's just best to wait for good thing that keep doing something even if you don't like it anymore. I'm now going though a burn out phase (my gaming store has started running events on the only days I can games and there's nno room for a rpg.) So I'm just taking a break, but I just bought the OA, very cool. [/QUOTE]
