Why do you game?

[DDK]

You know it's funny, I've been asking myself this question for the last couple of weeks and I still can't come up with an answer. Nor can I figure out why I STILL want to play despite so many failures and set backs and never being able to get a decent amount of PLAYING in.

So I can min/max. Thats why I hang out in the rules forum too.

I'm fighting a lifelong battle against boredom and RPGs are some of my most important weapons.

I game because I like collaborative story telling.

So, I can post here.

Actually, it's fun. Meet cool people and get to talk in a language no one knows (gamer speak). Get to be creative and meet some darn creative people.

Because it's either this or I go nuts.

Your not nuts?

 

[Nightfall]

Oh no I am! I'm just saying I'd lose touch with ALL realities. Not just this one.

Why do I game? Mostly it's to spend time with friends. Plus gaiming is a great creative outlet.

Because I'm a young child of 12 reading the rule books of this fantastic new game I've heard about that all the college kids are playing with dice and miniatures - and I'm absolutely blown away.
