[QUOTE="AbdulAlhazred, post: 9008563, member: 82106"] Well, its always going to be dicey to try to diagnose other people's games based on limited descriptions. Beyond that I think maybe beyond a certain point we're getting into a discussion that is probably tangential to the one [USER=42582]@pemerton[/USER] is engaged in, plus this all seems like one of those "we had this discussion in every 2nd thread all over again" kinds of things. I guess the only observation I would make is that in our ST game, or a DW/AW game, there isn't really anything else but the sort of thing I was describing above. If I attempted to run my character as pretty much just a generic guy, go around, do actions, really shallow character, play would basically collapse. There wouldn't really be any direction or force to it. I mean, the GM would probably push on me so hard SOMETHING would happen, but its not like D&D games I've experienced where you can kinda just kick in doors, kill stuff, whatever and just "play the setting." Does that make sense? [/QUOTE]
