Tell them your concerns and see what they think. They might be happy with the situation or you might find out they don't like it either. If they don't like it then you guys can work together to come up with a solution. I had a GM who wanted a very sandbox game but that paralyzed our group. Not so much because of option paralysis. It was more that we felt despite what he was saying the GM did have a plan, it was just a secret plan, and that he really wanted us to go along with it. So it became a game of guess that word in my head where we were trying to play along with the GM's plan when he really did want us to do whatever we wanted. I can't help but feel if we talked about it then maybe we all would have enjoyed the game more. My other suggestion is that maybe what your group needs is a group goal. Why is the group together? Are they monster hunters? Treasure finders? Action archelogists? Mercenaries? Whatever their goal it has to be more than being adventurers and you can use that goal to push them in a direction. Since it's a goal they chose they should go along with it. Most importantly of all though is talk to them.</blockquote>
