[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 9007961, member: 6801845"] They just literally told me that I was bad at gaming. That's an insult, I don't care how you try to spin it. But I don't know what kind of moves the GM is allowed to make. I don't know how many points they've spent because in D&D they have infinite points if they want. Perhaps. But ... it's like in D&D where I don't want the DM fudging dice to save my PC. If they roll three crits in a row and it kills my PC? Well, that's just kind of the way the game works. If I'm facing a foe I can't defeat, perhaps I'll run, perhaps I'll try to keep their focus on me so others can flee even if it means valiantly sacrificing myself. I'm not saying other games can't do that as well, it just seems less likely in some games. I only have so much time to spend gaming. I'll play games I know I enjoy. That's what I asked for if it wasn't clear. It's one thing to read the rules, it's another to see actual play even if I don't have time/opportunity/motivation to play. But I can find a bit of time here and there to watch a bit. [/QUOTE]
