[QUOTE="Agamon, post: 6652023, member: 184"] I had this problem a few years ago. 4e came out, we played it for about 6 months and one of the players really didn't enjoy it. So I switched to Hackmaster, as the new version of that had just released its basic rules. A different player didn't like it. So I asked what they could agree on. The answer was 3.5 or Pathfinder. The problem was, I was burned out on d20. I gave it a go, but if the GM isn't feeling it, the game will die pretty fast. I got tired of starting new games and trying to please everyone, so I stopped roleplaying for almost 2 years. Then 5e was announced and I got the itch again and checked out the OSR movement. That led to me starting up a new game with most of regulars from the last group, this time running Adventurer Conqueror King System. Everyone was content with that game, and we played for almost 2 years before 5e came out. When it did, we switched over to that and everyone is having fun playing it. I guess the point is pretty similar to advice already given. Find something everyone wants to play (or try, even). Or, get someone else to run a game if you would rather not run it. Failing that, you need to find a new group or take a break from it. It's a game, a means to have fun. No one should be playing anything when they aren't having fun. [/QUOTE]
