I’m not unwilling to compromise, but there needs to be a give and take. You want me to DM, you want to play in the setting I’ve built, you want to play a Genasi, and you want to play in the material plane, and you aren’t willing to work with me to figure out why your character is there? And somehow I’m the one who’s being unreasonableI certainly wouldn’t force the group to play in a setting they aren’t interested in. If they don’t like my setting, we can do something else. But it would be less work to find a different group of players than to create a new setting. And frankly, I’d rather find people to game with whose interests are more closely aligned with my own than run a game in a setting I don’t find interesting. My homebrew setting certainly isn’t the only setting I find interesting, but I’m guessing of the table is so opposed to it, we’re not super likely to land on a setting we do all agree on.That’s because most people don’t tend to stick with groups who don’t share their interests for long. If there’s a regular need for anybody to be overruling anybody, the group will probably end up breaking up in short order.</blockquote>
