[QUOTE="CapnZapp, post: 7708304, member: 12731"] You must have missed the mod red text, since you insist on trying to prove a man's taste is wrong. Stop talking about it here - that's my free advice to you. Can you stop trying to sell metamagic to somebody that doesn't like it already? There is nothing universally good about the doom mechanic. Or rather, if you don't like it... you don't like it, and you can't say anything to change that fact. Stop presuming to know what others feel about the mechanic. It might not be "terribly intrusive" to you, but it certainly could be to people that hate metagame mechanics. Moreover, by claiming you know how much or little intrusion there is, you come across as terribly irritating. Why don't you actually listen to me: I'm not the one with huge feelings for or against metagame mechanics either way. I do however know that you can't convince the other side with rational arguments since IT IS A MATTER OF TASTE. So, for the love of the gods, just accept that the inclusion of metagame mechanics into a game like Conan is contentious and will always be a source of complaints by those who have other feelings than you on the subject: in their view, the game would have been infinitely better without it, and its inclusion could even be a dealbreaker for them. Phew. [/QUOTE]
