[QUOTE="GrimCo, post: 9278021, member: 7044462"] Solution is always the same when it comes to conflicting preferences. Sit down and talk. We are talking about group of friends here, people who like and respect each other. So open and honest discussion and you find common ground. It can be game that everyone at the table loves equally. If table is divided between games x and y, you can go back and forth between games, and if someone really dislikes other game, he/she can skip the session when that game is being played. Or, worst case, if everyone really wants to play X and you hate the game, you take a break until they finish campaign and just hang out with your friends outside of gaming. This is from personal experience. We play 5th ed D&D since it's a consensus game that everyone likes well enough. My personal favourite is still WoD, my friend loves his Warhammer Fantasy, my brother loves CoC, DM loves Houses of the Blooded, for other 2 D&D is their no1 pick. About 12-3 years ago, i had fantasy burnout. It wasn't fun for me any more. We stared alternative Hunters game that faded out cause of conflicting schedules after only 5-6 sessions. Same thing happened with my D20 modern SF game, 2-3 sessions and fade out. D&D campaign was still going strong. So i took time off, stooped playing for almost a year. We still hung out. We were still friends. Their campaign ended, i hoped back in, we played a bit of 7th sea, then some 2ed AD&D and when D&D Next playtest started, we switched to that. It's ok to take a brake from playing if game isn't doing it for you any more. [/QUOTE]
