[QUOTE="Rhianni32, post: 8049571, member: 68272"] Awesome. Not only did you pull the "my-experience-is-different-so-therefore-your-opinion-is-wrong." you also added in the condescending I'm ignorant but you are going to teach me schtick. What is it with this place? I do applaud you though for cutting out a key part of my post... [I]"The rules of the [B]more common[/B] rules were all combat focused [B]leaving RP as a subchapter[/B] "[/I] I lived through much of the RPG history you are claiming I need to learn. I'm 45. Sure there was Pendragon and Cthulu and you could find those rules in your FLGS's discount bin because few were playing them. You usually would find them past all the TSR offerings up front because that is what sold because that is what the majority of gamers played. I will admit one notable exception is that World of Darkness did pretty well over the years and had more rules for RP then D&D did though I am not sure I would classify it as a RP focused over combat ruleset.
