PCs are supposed to be able to stand up to deities?

Re: Re: Go to the Original

For what it's worth, for one of us not to be concerned about the way we look to other gamers, let alone non-gamers, is a tragic mistake. I'm no chameleon, but the overall issue is really one of gaining acceptance of this entertainment choice by the mass-market, so it continues by being profitable. Those of us who can't manage a real job, or move out of their parents' house, or whatever, do us all a disservice by perpetuating the stereotype.

Whether the mass market likes or dislikes RPGs is the mass market's problem, not mine.

Whether RPGs are profitable has little to do with whether the mass market likes or dislikes them.

How people choose to live their lives is up to them. There may be valid reasons for intervening in peoples' lives, but how they impact the mass market's view of RPGs isn't one of them.
