[QUOTE="abirdcall, post: 7466804, member: 6748898"] That doesn't sound very exciting or fun to me. An action movie where the heroes take their time and methodically go about their business just doesn't sound appealing. I also can't think of any adventures I've played in recent memory where this is the case. All of the WotC adventures have been like this. The only place they have faltered have been the random encounters over wilderness travel. Is it fun though? I would much rather just have that take place off camera and move on with the game. Captain America: The Winter Soldier has a great example of this. They need to break into a military facility to retrieve Falcon's suit. So they just say 'oh that will be easy' and then 5 seconds later they have it. They just handled it all off camera because it would be boring to watch. My rule of thumb is to ask whether this story would make for a good action movie. [/QUOTE]
