I'm trying to get back in it and bringing my wife with (although not here, just to live games). Starting with D&D 5E because my wife is a newb and it is pretty good to ease her in to how this stuff works. Also, 90% of findable live games locally are D&D 5E. Breaking back in slow and steady for now and I'm using enworld to just look at what the RPG field is like these days, the news, what people think, blah blah blah. I'm more into story/character than mechanics/tactics. I like multiple genres, but I'm in the mood for more optimistic settings these days. I like cross-genre stuff, over the top unrealistic battles (ala cartoons/anime, superhero movies, and wire kung fu movies), and lots of imagination. I really like sometimes surreal mysterious exploration vibes ala Twin Peaks, LOST, X-Files, Fringe maybe mixed with Indiana Jones. I am never interested in playing/GMing evil characters (although GMing one evil one in a good group can be interesting). I am not interested in political power games ala Game of Thrones. I already see a pessimistic world run almost entirely by sociopaths, thank you very much. If I want that I'll just watch the news or read a history book. I actually filled out my profile decently which has some more data. Werd.</blockquote>
