Games you won't play

I don't LARP; Vampire, all that jazz. Never have, never will. Uber gothic-themed games where players are werewolves, vampires, ghosts - those things just don't appeal to me in the very slightest.
 

Elves. I refuse to ever play an elf. If a campaign was centered around elves, I'd consider leaving it. The D&D campaigns I run don't even have elves in the setting at all. I also have never really seriously played any kind of wizard or magic-user character.
 

I really won't play games with any kind of random Chargen.

I detest Horror as a genre, as well as any game where the heroes are helpless in one way or another.
Completely agree.

I also won't play anything that's intended as dark or gritty.

There's also an upper limit of rules I refuse to deal with. (3.5 sits somewhere on the edge of that.) Also tactical and resource-management rules are mostly out.

I will not play any games with very restrictive character choices.

Okay, I suppose I should go under the assumption that a) I'm not already playing something(s) and have both the time and inclination (determination, even) to play an RPG, and b) I'm playing and not GMing (which, most often, is not the case).

In that case, I might try anything, even something I'm not keen on, though, because of recent experiences, I probably wouldn't play high-level 3.x. I also would tend not to play a game like Rolemaster with all the charts and rolling simulationist stuff.

I probably wouldn't last long on a 2e game before the hate returned, either.

Oh, or a LARP. I don't swing that way. :p

Without the assumptions from the first paragraph, it'd have to be something darn awesome to even consider.
