The d20 modern feel

It's amazing how many tough thugs and green berets can quote Monty Python. If you are playing in a fantasy world, it's okay to slip out of character, you actually have to just to get a can of soda. But in a modern game, it is the "realism" that is supposed to be the draw

It is?

Not that I didn't say "realistic." :)

I suppose this defintion is that realism = familarity and a different quality to your suspension of disbelief. In some ways you can maintain your character easier since a lot of table talk can be incorparated into in-character (current events, political views.)

Of course the dividing line is funny. For example, one of the reasons I prefer Table top to Live Action is that despite the concept of staying in charater all night, I had trouble imagining someone's bathroom as the sewers, or the dorm's mezzaine as a penthouse.

... or was Hong commenting how many Green Berets can quote Monty Python?
