[QUOTE="MGibster, post: 8136328, member: 4534"] Sure. But we're talking about games with settings designed specifically for PCs to do something in and those designed with no clear focus. Here are some examples of popular games with a built-in focus for PCs. Shadowrun: Your characters are runners (criminals) in a setting that is the unholy bastard child of Tolkien and Gibson who engage in acts of thefts sabotage, kidnappings, murder (?), and other forms of skullduggery against and on behalf of corporations. Call of Cthulhu: Your characters are investigators uncovering mysterious that involve the Cthulhu mythos. Paranoia: You're a troubleshooter for friend Computer. Please assist friend Computer will all tasks it assigns to you. Failure to assist friend Computer is treason. Now in Call of Cthulhu there's some variation. The default setting is the 1920s but 1890 and modern are also popular. But no matter which era, you know what you're doing in that game. [/QUOTE]
