Message: <blockquote data-quote="Wik" data-source="post: 5203814" data-attributes="member: 40177">this is a fun thread.  A few of my minorities:1)  I like easier games.  I'd much rather GM (and play) in a game where things are a bit too easy than a bit too hard.  I mean, I like to challenge PCs, and I've TPKed my fair share of groups, but I generally prefer the PCs to come out on top.  I tend to err on the side of caution because of this.2)  I prefer weaker PCs.  When I play, I like PCs with flaws.  Not only flaws, but active hindrances to being awesome.  My characters always have some problem that gets in the way of their success.  My brother is the same way - I think it must be a genetic gamer mutation, or something.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />3)  I am firmly against the use of music in RPGs.  No music in the background.  Ever.4)  The Penny Arcade podcasts, while funny, annoy the hell out of me.  I would hate to GM (or play) in that group.5)  I do *not* think Savage Worlds is a game that can cover any genre... and when people ask for a game system recommendation for "X", it is not my instant system of choice.  6)  I do not like Star Wars, Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica, or pretty much any sci-fi fantasy show that has ever been on TV, with the exception of Firefly and (maybe) the first season of Supernatural. 7)  I game in a group that has a 50/50 split in terms of player gender.  Or, at least, it's close right now (the number fluctuates, obviously).  8)  I have next to no interest in most of the planes.  Even though my campaign is in the feywild right now.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />9)  I don't usually like new monsters - I'd much rather my monster books consist of new goblin, orc, gnoll, ghoul (and so on) variants. 10)  I prefer poker or a board game to an RPG.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
