They were great fun. My dming style, for the record, is one that places the integrity of the campaign world above most other concerns; I am totally willing to inflict a tpk on pcs that seek out a monster that is too tough for them, to give a classic example. As far as the point about "it's what you explore, not how you explore it" goes, having cool rules for exploration is a lot of fun from the sandboxy dm's perspective. I like being able to use the dice to determine what happens to the pcs. As a dm, I vastly prefer a style of game where I can toss the dice and follow where they lead; I'm a fan of wandering monsters (they help to illustrate what lives in the territory the pcs are going through) and enjoy a type of game where hit points don't necessarily all heal overnight, you need to track rations at times and how many arrows you recover after a fight matters.</blockquote>
