[QUOTE="Von Ether, post: 7720985, member: 15582"] With the right game system (for me), I just strung together an 8-month campaign mostly as an outline/money shots and let the interplay of the players and I fill in the weekly details. Not much different, in some ways, to the filler episodes that do nothing for the story arc of Babylon 5, but may be a cool aside or delve into a character. I've done the grand 1 to 20 level campaign design, but RL kept interrupting the flow with work shift changes, people moving, new gf/bf, gamer ADHD, personal issues, etc. So many of them ended up being like a unfinished 10-course meal. All that work went unused and since it was for higher level D&D, it was also unrecyclable. Years later and a few editions later and I now know how to get some of those things recycled now, but for some systems that's still some work. Others not so much. So doing a mostly improve game beyond one-shots and short arcs can be done with the right combo of players, GM and system. But that's true for a lot of RPG situations. [/QUOTE]
