[QUOTE="Odhanan, post: 2910592, member: 12324"] It's your misunderstanding indeed. For any of the points of "min/maxing is bad because it is against role-playing" to be valid, you first have to demonstrate that min/maxing impedes role-playing. In my experience, that's said a lot but isn't true. I know people who min/max and play great role-playing moments, and I know people who care for the actual role-playing only and just suck at it. Then, if you demonstrate this, you then have to justify your statement that role-playing is all that matters or the main thing that matters or should matter in a role-playing game. Otherwise than just using the name of the hobby (i.e. "it's a ROLE-playing game, isn't it?" does not prove anything whatsoever). You'll then find out that RPGs aren't all about role or game, even worse, they involve other components than these two as well. That's a self fulfilling sentence, and a wrong one at that. That's like saying "Fishermen don't like to go to the park but rather fish instead, just for the sake of fishing something". ... WTF?! :confused: [/QUOTE]
