[QUOTE="Shiroiken, post: 7462126, member: 6775477"] There are really three types of people who RPGs. ROLE playing game - focus on fluff role playing GAME - focus on crunch role PLAYING game - the normal people who just play the game I focus on the ROLE, and find a lot of silly/stupid ideas used to cover up various mechanical monstrosities fairly offensive in games I'm running or playing in. Those sacred cows are SACRED dammit! Others focus on the GAME, and see nothing wrong with reskinning or reflavoring things if it gives them the desired mechanical result. I'm sure they get offended by our views as well, but have no idea how. They like the sacred cows served medium rare. The vast majority don't visit forums or other social media to rant about how the game SHOULD be played, and just play the damn game. They generally don't sacrifice sacred cows without cause, but have no problem doing so if they get a character they like. We should all be more like this category, but then no one would be around to post here :) [/QUOTE]
