[QUOTE="James Gasik, post: 8641865, member: 6877472"] They did enjoy the sandbox hex crawl I put together...well other than the one player who felt somehow angered when they realized that hexes they had "cleared" weren't going to stay devoid of monsters forever (it was a very strange discussion). But boy was that a lot of hard work. I also ran into the "Metroidvania" problem more than once- they'd encounter a threat they couldn't handle yet. I suggested they come back later and deal with it once they were prepared. They grumbled and never returned. Like there were these giant larva and butterflies that could inflict electricity damage, and they got beat up, so I was like, just come back with some potions of electricity resistance (this was Pathfinder) and you should make easy work of them. "Yeah, ok." "So what's in the next hex?" [/QUOTE]
