[QUOTE="Ariosto, post: 5028852, member: 80487"] Nope. Wrong on all counts -- not least in that I don't even think that "sandbox" means anything in particular! You keep using that word, and I do not think it means what you think it means ... to RC ... who does not think the same as Doug ... and so on. I have in fact written of my experiences enjoying different styles. I [B]invented[/B] a "drama-driven game", for scrying of lard! What I openly deride is your putting down everyone who does not agree to your superiority. What I openly deride is your insistence, over and over and over again, on telling us that our games are this or that insulting thing no matter how many times we tell you how they actually are. Some things sort of go with playing [B]Vampire: the Masquerade[/B] or [B]Sorcerer[/B]; some go with playing [B]Call of Cthulhu[/B], others with [B]RuneQuest[/B] and others yet with [B]Pendragon[/B]. Normal people do not expect [B]Axis & Allies[/B] to be just like [B]Thurn and Taxis[/B], and accept that [B]Stratego[/B] is different from [B]Mille Bornes[/B]. There are an [B]awful lot of games[/B] not played just like yours, Hussar! [/QUOTE]
