[QUOTE="tetrasodium, post: 9306674, member: 93670"] It's not an online/offline thing. I might have run or played in one or two short lived online things, but I've been doing in person meatspace games since I started many years ago. The biggest changes came with the shift in tone that 5e brought along & exacerbated with regularly saying the words "[I]tell[/I] [I][U]your[/U][/I] story". On top of the fact that both of those italicized words are a rather toxic mindset to approach a collaborative group activity there is the glaring omission of working with the other players & critical elements like making your character fit into the GM's world. As often as I've heard Crawford & such say tell your story I can't recall ever hearing them talk about respecting the GM's world even though that's like step zero in the process of discovering and evolving any kind of story with a PC.
