[QUOTE="Eosin the Red, post: 701448, member: 168"] I can play in a 1 shot silly type of game - but that is not what I want to do each saturday. My do not want to play in list: 1. Uber-power - I like humans and human limitations. When I want to play a superhero I play Champions - not D&D. I prefer a Jordan/Martin type of world. There are some terrible killing machines in those books but in the end everybody is mortal. 2. MAGE - brilliant idea but the sysem just seems doomed to fail. The wilder/smarter the PCs the more pressure on the DM who must get more creative and more inventive on the fly - which inspires the characters to be more inventive and creative - eventually TPK one night while in a brain cloud. The otherside is worse - lame/unimaginitive players. 3. Anime - gaak. 4. Screw your buddy games. 5. Anything with furry-talking bi-pedal animals. 6. Star Wars - Why do the people least suited to play the jedi always want to be one. I would love to play in a game with some good players but experience tells me that you should be wary of someone who wants to play the jedi (or the Vulcan/Mimbari). 7. Any game that has no basis in reality - It requires to much suspension of disbelief for me. I can take Sci-fi (ST/SW/B5/Aliens) but games like Cyberpunk that have techno and dwarves and elves and magic.....gaak. Games that can be vaguely equated to human history interest me the most (Harn, Birthright, GRRM). I could go on but why? [/QUOTE]
