[QUOTE="Rhenny, post: 6877982, member: 18333"] Here's an applicable anecdote from my last game session. We play online via fantasy grounds. During the game, one of my players left the game while the party was interacting with their prisoner, then the constable and some refugees from a devestated location a day's journey to the south. He messaged me and told me straight up he got bored during rp. I thought he was out for good, but when we began a combat encounter 25 minutes later, he joined in. When I responded to his message, I told him that in my campaign I try to add a little bit of everything (combat, exploration and rp/interaction). I guess he's ok with it, but I know he'll check out if we have more extensive periods of interaction. In this case, it isn't necessarily the system that he dislikes it is the style of game that has more interaction and story elements. On the other hand, the system makes it pretty easy to run my games with more balance in the 3 pillars so the system contributes to creating the type of game I want to run. [/QUOTE]
