But I am, and don't get me wrong I'm as far appart from gamism and specially powergamming. I prefer sessions when more interaction with NPCs and I'm not a fan of combat and challenges all time. I'm fine with having only 40 minutes of fighting for a two hour session. And I consider myself more of a roleplayer, however I don't like acting as if my character is very good at something when he/she isn't. And because of that I like leveling up, I like to fully realize the concept I'm looking forward to play. This has nothing to do with wanting a superhero, not by any measure. But some concepts are complicated at low level, and sometimes you just struggle to play the character you are trying to play and end up playing something else. Once on a core only game I just wanted to level-up, but it had nothing to do with just wishing more power, or not enjoying the right now. I quite enjoyed the game, the world was compelling and NPCs were colorful and live. The only problem was my character, I wanted to play a truly peasant sorcerer, one concerned with mundane life and who wasn't affraid of getting into a fight and in fact enjoyed melee. The problem was that my character looked like a reckless moron who was always getting pummeled very quickly into a fight, I really needed those levels to stay awake a full fight and to stop struggling to hit the wide side of a barn.Also, this all comes to recognizing variety in playstyle, there is no need to declare badwrongfun a style different from your own.  It all comes to tolerance.</blockquote>
