I responded by asking (rhetoricly) if those who went for "risk of death or there's no point" gaming couldn't enjoy older episodes of action tv shows if they had seen more recent ones and knew no one died. The point was that he clearly looked for similar things in RPGs to what he looked for in video games, while I look for similar things to when I am watching, reading or writing a story. The disconnect was so great that he had made a completely erroneous connection about how someone who enjoyed rpgs a different way might enjoy other things.Now this is just a meta discussion about how we discussed it.   <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />  off to work.Kahuna Burger</blockquote>
