But really, all of these things where plenny in yesterdays one-shot session and even as they happened I was as deeply immersed as possible in a group with such a lack of concentration at all. These things are annoying, but they won't hurt my SoD.What did and always does hurt my SoD was boring combats. You know those fights where there are some crappy opponents that don't deal real damage, but the PC's don't get rid of? When the players aren't motivated to really use their abilities and just go "I hit him... again"#? When the PCs just go up against some mooks?It's those moments I loose every illusion of adventure and it all boils down to a bunch of dice rolling. There's nothing more anoing to me than that.*I often have players that tell me what the personality of their PC's is before game and during game there is no personality at all#Yesterdays rogue player wouldn't even try to get into flanking position even once in six hours, no wonder she doesn't like combats.</blockquote>
