[QUOTE="bloodtide, post: 8961992, member: 6684958"] I disagree. I do it "too much" as in 100%. Whatever random stuff a player or group of players think about how anything "must" be in a game. And this is a big deal for a lot of players. They sit down and think up a whole set of rule about how the world must be, mostly based on their whims. Sure they will try to say "everyone" thinks the same. And they will try to point out a movie or two that agrees with their viewpoint. Though they ignore all other movies that don't agree with thier viewpoint. It just makes no sense for anyone to think this way. I agree here. Worse, I see so many players with the idea that their character (aka themselves as they self insert) are born/created a hero. So they player feels that no matter what they do it makes them a great hero, and worse that they don't even need to take any actions to be a hero. They randomly do some stuff in the game, mostly mindless combat, then ask "Does my character get to be king now?" [/QUOTE]
