Surely you would not argue that eating a single meal for the rest of your life, repeated precisely identically each time, would not be boring? Surely you would agree that if we replaced all paintings ever made with variations on the Mona Lisa, that would be boring because it is repetition without alternative? Surely you would recognize that deleting all musing humanity has ever composed except pop love ballads would make music a significantly more dull experience overall, even though there are many variations within that category?If you dispute any of these, I'm keen to hear it, though I should warn you, it may mean we have so little in common as sapient beings I'm not sure we can meaningfully discuss...much of anything, let alone this specific topic.Okay. 99.9% of the uses of this trope (no phone, not tripe, I don't dislike it THAT much) in tabletop roleplaying are egregiously bad, to the point of actively poisoning my enjoyment of the experience.Happy?</blockquote>
