Message: <blockquote data-quote="Stacie GmrGrl" data-source="post: 5948033" data-attributes="member: 86279">I don't think game mechanics themselves play a part or factor in how females react to a game... it's atmosphere, within the setting and around the table that's key, IMO. Personally I like story centric games, the kind of games that explore both the world of the game and the individual characters of the game. I do prefer game systems that put an emphasis on this, like the Cortex+ games Smallville and Marvel Heroic Roleplaying, or some FATE games like Strands of FATE or Diaspora or Dresden Files, but I also love Fantasy Craft and Legend of the Five Rings and Earthdawn and Fading Suns and Werewolf and Geist and the upcoming Mummy for nWoD looks amazing...I love rpgs... but it's not the games I have a problem with. It's unaccepting, discriminating and ignorant people who are unwilling to accept others and treat them bad I have a problem with. when I say ignorant, I mean the people who make assumptions with a lack of knowledge about something or somebody because they have either not been taught, or they really don't care, or they refuse to learn and in the process they make decisions that hurt and harm other people and bring them down and they choose to act like this.I mean no insult to anybody here on these forums, I love you all... one of the best things about the Smallville game is that it focuses on Relationships, and it is designed for character Drama... and it does very well any type of game or TV show where the main cast and show story focuses on Drama and interpersonal conflicts... it's perfect for Buffy, Star Wars, Charmed, 90210, Supernatural, Battlestar Galactica, playing Disgaea and setting it in the Evil Academy, and of course Smallville to just name a few shows that you could do with it. It's my personal favorite game, it hits all my buttons and dare I say it hits all my female buttons as well. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />  So, if a game like D&D comes across as boring to someone you know...try a different game. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
