[QUOTE="Grimhelm, post: 4045718, member: 37079"] For me, role playing is a dead occupation. I feel as though I have lived through or told all the stories there are to tell in that framework. In my older age I just have no desire to play out the duel between good and evil. I have no interest in discovering mysteries within a make believe world. I have plenty of diversions and wondrous things to do in my real life! One of which is play other games! Somehow, there is a challenge about board games and their ilk that I do not find anymore in role playing games. I enjoy testing myself in this way, pushing myself to improve. Strangely, I think if I were to ever role play again it would be with young children. Even then, I doubt it would appeal to me. It is a game of youth. It is a game intimately involved with the symbolic and magical struggles of being young. Leave it to the kiddies, says I! ;) [/QUOTE]
