All I'm saying is that the gap between computers and P&P has closed significantly with NWN, and there will be others to follow judging on the success of NWN. As the gap closes you will find that people will try the computer games and some will prefer them.A game like NWN does have advantages over P&P, like; - the fact that a large amount of bookkeeping is taken care of, - being able to play with a group when you have none or not enough players in your area, - the scope to play in a group that has players in it from all over the world. For me personally there is still a large downside but at least I can recognise the advances made over time and I'm looking into the future a little, (my personal view, sure, but thinking is good for my brain).Also, this isn't the 80's computers are hardly considered "geeky" anymore. That's another trend that will continue, computers being commonplace, they are already putting them in our fridges and getting them to go online to order our groceries! (well, at least I still do that the "old fashioned way").</blockquote>
