[QUOTE="Agback, post: 2868885, member: 5328"] In the last year I have played in or GMed games set in: * The Forgotten Realms (D&D) * A fantasticated version of mediaeval Japan (Bushido) * A fantasticated version of modern England (Ghosts of Albion) * Russia in the 1990s, seen through a Le Carré lens (James Bond 007) * England, the Carribean, and Spain in 1979, seen through a Fleming lens (James Bond 007) * My homebrew SF setting, Flat Black (ForeSight) * My homebrew fantasy setting, Gehennum (HindSight). In the 26 years I have been playing RPGs I have played dozens of different settings: five of my own fantasy homebrews, two of my own SF homebrews, at least five friends' fantasy homebrews that I can remember, three different visions of Middle-Earth, at least a dozen fantasy versions of western Europe including Castle Falkenstein and the court of King Arthur, Larry Niven's Known Space, the Traveller Imperium, three different parallel Earths, Mars from Space 1889, a Mars of my own devising in a 1896 setting, a swampy pulp version of Venus, Cthulhu by gaslight, in the 20s, in the 50s, and in the 90s, Delta Green, CyberPunk 2020, at least a dozen friends' futuristic SF settings, the World of Darness, my own 'fixed' version of the WoD. And that's without considering things set ostensibly in teh real world at different periods, and with different and incompatible things going on iin secret. I would no more play in only one setting than I would watch only one TV show. [/QUOTE]
