[QUOTE="Yaztromo, post: 7127818, member: 6786253"] Of course the preference (for long campaigns, short campaigns, one-off adventure or chain of one-off adventures that may or may not turn into a campaign, or even long campaign with intervals made of special, unrelated one-off adventures with completely unrelated themes and settings) changes with time, with the availability of free time and with the availability (and tastes) of the other people sharing your same interests in gaming. Often the preference waves between the various options, so don't feel bad about closing down (or pass on to more motivated game masters) the long campaigns that are becoming heavyier and heavyier for you to move forward and feel free to move to a format that suits you better. It's a game and having fun is the very basis of it. Just don't be surprised if in future you will look forward to other formats again or even to go back to long campaigns. It happens. Said that, right now I prefer one-off adventures or mini-campaigns with rulesets that don't involve levelling up with experience, but at most improving your basic characteristics. By the way, after playing a lot on line, I closed down most of that kind of games: now I prefer just face to face and if it can't be done for practical reasons, so be it. [/QUOTE]
