[QUOTE="Umbran, post: 5438474, member: 177"] Right. But before they start that reading, they don't know. They can't know, as they've never done it before. It isn't like people are born with this stuff in their heads, they either have to spontaneously generate the idea, or get it from someone, or some book. So, why not have some of those books include some of this sort of information, for them to pick up? Why not make a whole book about it, so they can include it in what they pick and choose to use? One thing I think it is good to learn - the experience of one person is probably not demonstrative of the universe at large. I'm happy you have never seen an uninspired new player. I, myself, have seen inspired new players who didn't have a good idea of what direction to take that inspiration. Some ideas of where one can go could be very useful to folks who haven't been around the block a few times. And, even to those old hands you talk about - the folks who have gotten stuck in a rut - new inspiration can give their gaming new life. [/QUOTE]
