Similarly, the underlying game might offer one or another while its accessories and scenarios develop some different aspects. Most games and support material are general and offer a reasonably well-balanced mix.Then he goes on to talk about competitions and tournaments.     [MENTION=6787503]Hriston[/MENTION]  No I didn't confuse words.  The paragraph you quote does not override any of the other ones, so any gaming and goals have to be undertaken with the understanding that it is in the context of playing your person as he is in the game and acting accordingly, including being stupid if the PC is stupid.In any case, the entire article is an opinion piece with no more weight than any other opinion on these forums.</blockquote>
