[QUOTE="The Ghost, post: 4680579, member: 60281"] And I agree with you entirely on that point. If everything is written so that the PCs cannot do anything then the PCs cannot do anything. (I feel like Yogi Berra!) However, you can write things so that it encourages roleplaying opportunities. Just because I closed one door does not mean that there is not a window or two open. I do not see consistency discouraging the ability to game and have fun. I am not sure that consistency and good-gaming are related concepts. I think that some people find that a consistent world to be very conducive to roleplaying while others find it hindering. What you call tying of hands I see as freeing my ability to use my feet. :] His way may not be best for you or your fellow gamers but for him and his fellow gamers - it might be! And I encourage anyone to do what works best for them. Thanks, I find these boards are best when they facilitate the telling of stories. I have stolen many a campaign idea from reading other peoples posts. If you choose to use anything I say - I wish you the best of luck! :) [/QUOTE]
