[QUOTE="Lhorgrim, post: 5063785, member: 12222"] I am primarily looking for an RPG that let's me [I]escape[/I] reality. My real life job gives me all the "real world" conflicts and angst that I care to have. I prefer RPGs that bear little resemblance to my real life, so I don't really enjoy modern based games or games with a heavy focus on military or law enforcement. I guess I'm the same way with my sci-fi. I understand that some people like to ponder some of the difficult issues of our times through their entertainment, but I need escape. I liked most of BSG, but some of the more "ripped from the headlines" episodes made me tune out. It's the same with Law and Order. It's too real, but at the same time there are so many points of literary license taken to get us to the conclusion in the alloted time that I can't take it seriously. I'm talking about stuff like getting a judge to sign a search warrant without any real probable cause so that the (anti?)hero can find the information in the suspects office to move the plot along.
