In our group we decide before the campaign what kind of campaign it's going to be. Naturally the DM has a lot of weight in that decision, but also the players can have their say. Even though I'm mostly a DM I never really got the attitude that it's the DMs game, which seems to be a popular one here at ENWorld. Presumably because majority of the members are DMs themselves. IMO, it's never just the DMs game. It's the groups game. Or has anyone ever run a game with one DM and zero players? (Actually yes, but that was some horrorstory over at Wizards boards <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />)I certainly can agree with ryard here. They aren't forcing their DMs oh-so-precious (more precious than a players', anyway, it seems) imagination in some small box. They're just deciding as a group the common ground on which the campaign should take place. It's basically just deciding what ruleset is going to be used. Or do you think that players have no say in the matter if the DM decides to run a GURPS campaign instead of D&D?</blockquote>
