[QUOTE="EzekielRaiden, post: 9099078, member: 6790260"] I really don't think being on both sides of the screen is what does it. Mostly because I had this experience [I]without[/I] going to the other side of the screen. What it takes is [I]playing different kinds of games[/I]. There are a lot of people who have only played 3.X and 5e, which are very similar systems for better and for worse. That leaves people with simply a lack of context for answering the question. To know what things truly delight and excite you, you need to do and try a lot of things. And it may be the case that you won't enjoy a lot of those things. That's fine! But I can't tell you how many times I've had to deal with someone (not just in TTRPGs) who was utterly convinced that they only liked X thing, or couldn't possibly enjoy Y thing...and then when they actually tried something outside the limits of X/actually gave Y a shot, suddenly their whole view changed.
