I said what I would do, not what everyone should do.I think it comes from the "emotional kick" each person gets out of playing. Me, I'm more of a sociable gamer, and it shows in my play. I'm not afraid to play a character to the point of stupidity if the situation calls for it - if my PC is brash, I act brash. If I want to play a cautious guy, he'll still get the job done - but no rushing in planless, and such.In the end, I don't play to get a powerful or well-developed character - I play because I get to have fun with friends, and whatever level the character is at is a means to that end. Just like I wouldn't have fun playing a 5th level character in the Tomb, I play the 15th level guy because he stands a chance - a glimmer of a chance, but it's there.Some people enjoy slowly and carefully building a character - telling their story, or making the ultimate death engine, or the ultimate diplomat, etc. Others just want to kick butt without having theirs handed to them, and some don't like it if there are too few options in-game. Me, I'm there to play. I'll have fun if my character is irrevocably lost, and I'll have fun if he comes home loaded with riches and no worse for wear.If I remember correctly, the Return to the Tomb AIN'T that kinda place. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> It's. well, a grinder for the unlucky or unprepared. There are some situations where the PC just loses their life; others where the PC loses their soul, and still others where the PC WISHES they could die. Hand me the Prozac and the +5 Holy Avenger, Bill - I'm goin' in!</blockquote>
