[QUOTE="Manbearcat, post: 8595054, member: 6696971"] [B]You're playing a game about gun-toting paladins who are meting out justice, rooting out Sin, and upholding the Faith in a wild west that never was. The Faith is real. Sin is real. Sorcery/demonic possession is real. The King of Life (the deity) is real.[/B] The point of play is to do the thing in that first bolded sentence and find out what happens when your characters collide with all that stuff. You've got all the agency in the world within the constraints of the above two bolded sentences. You don't get to play an anti-paladin who opposes the Dogs and wants to expose The King of Life as a sham. You have a huge amount of freedom, but your freedom ends when you want to go outside of the above two bolded sentences. So we accept the premise of the first two bolded sentences (which limit our freedom to do whatever the eff we want) and its "game on." [/QUOTE]
