[QUOTE="Vyvyan Basterd, post: 4806977, member: 4892"] I would never feel comfortable LARPing and when I'm uncomfortable I'm not having fun. Same would go for any game that turns sexually explicit. I really have no interest in playing a game where character power levels vary so much as to make any player feel useless. RIFTS and (to a much lesser extent) 3E D&D come to mind. Not that I won't play either system, but measures need to be taken to fix the imbalance. I don't like settings that are bleak and hopeless. Cyberpunk seemed that way to me, whereas Shadowrun seemed to have a glimmer of hope. I don't like systems that force you to play evil. I will play an evil character as a change of pace from time-to-time, but a system that required it would probably not appeal to me (maybe because it seems bleak and hopeless too). I'd prefer not to play in a game without some form of fantasy/sci-fi element. I wouldn't rule a modern game out entirely, I'm just not sure I'd have fun. And this assumes talking about what games I'd play on a short-term or one-shot basis. The only long-term game I'm intersted in running is 4E D&D or Earthdawn: Age of Legends. The list of games I'm willing to play is a little more open than that, but much more selective than my short-term/one-shot list. [/QUOTE]
