At one point in time, i got burnout from fantasy and D&D. I sat down with them, asked if we could switch to something else, even offered to run something else, just not D&D fantasy. Rest of the guys had blast playing that campaign, we finally hit teen levels, so they said no, they aren't willing to switch in last leg of the campaign ( cause most times, campaigns that are put on hold, fizzle out). So i took brake from gaming for a year. We were still friends, we hang out, i just didn't play in that campaign. One of the guys in our group only plays D&D. That's it. Anything else, he is out. Still our friend. When we play other systems, he politely declines invite to games.Players aren't disposable. But sometimes, preferences don't match. If half want to play h&s casual beer and pretzel, half want to play serious role play heavy character driven game, and DM is up for both, if schedule alows, splitting group in two is option. If DM is inclined to run one, but not other, well, DM runs what he's interested in running with half, other half join in if they have change of mind or they join in for next campaign. It has 0 impact on friendship.</blockquote>
