[QUOTE="Sunseeker, post: 7731713"] So, what, you're suggesting that they have to keep making up [I]brand new[/I] settings? Or that they only produce small, incremental adventures to the setting? Quite frankly, that sentiment is more fantastical than the game itsself. Literally [I]nobody[/I] does that. Nobody. Heck, the only reason we're even playing at a table (you, me, everyone) is [I]because[/I] something incredible is taking place within the setting. We're not getting together so we can farm crops, live like peasants or generally watch the days go by. We're playing because something BIG happened. If nothing of import happened, it would be covered in the Text of Scrolling at the start of the session. Getting together to witness the birth of King Kinglyton's 12th child may seem mundane, and it is...except that the reason we're playing through this at the table is because the child was born half-fae! Which means something strange is afoot! The fact that relations with the Fae kingdoms have deteriorated in the past 30 years only leads us back to the same conclusion: we are all playing the game today because something big is happening.
