[QUOTE="Mark CMG, post: 6064647, member: 10479"] I guess I am a hardcore gamer of wargames, RPGs, and many non-wargame board games (even a handful of non-collectible card games). I've been gaming for roughly 40 years and RPGs since 1974. I go to at least a half dozen gamedays and conventions every year and play in a somewhere around a dozen RPG systems each year as well. I've known relatively few single-system RPGers in my gaming life, that is those who play only a single RPG system year after year for a few years or more. Multi-system gamers (that is, those who play a number of RPG systems during the year, most year of their gaming life) have systems they really love, some they will play if invited whether they love them or just like them, some they have tried and don't like/play, and some few systems they simply don't care to to even try because of what they have discovered about them. They can generally glance through a book or check out a demo of a system, new or old, and decide if it is something about which they wish to spend any time discovering more. All that said, I think people who self-identify as single-system, dedicated 4E gamers will likely continue to play 4E for as long as they can rally enough players to do so, as well they should. If someone finds a system they love and have no time for other RPGing, they should stick with it. [/QUOTE]
