[QUOTE="Oryan77, post: 5554742, member: 18701"] A lot of people like to brag about how many different RPG games they have played. People seem to look at it like a badge of honor. I initially think negatively about a person when I hear that they have played in a ton of different games. My first thoughts are, "Dang, this person must either be a pain in the butt to play with & keeps getting kicked out of groups, or this person can't stay interested in anything for very long without getting bored and needing something new." That's just my first reaction, and not even something that I actually believe is true. It's just something that lingers in the back of my mind at first. It mostly has to do with the fact that I prefer to stick with a select few games and I'd rather play them for a very long time. I'm not one that quickly gets bored of something and needs something new. Hell, I stick to the same 1 or 2 video games for months while all my friends keep hopping from one newly released game to another. That drives me nuts because I want to keep playing the game with them and I'm always forced to play it alone. I thought it would be interesting to hear peoples gaming experience and the reasons you switched games. It doesn't have to be any elaborate tale unless you want it to be. So the three questions to answer would be the following: 1. How long have you been playing RPGs? 2. What systems, editions, and different campaigns did you play in? 3. What made you switch from one to another? [/QUOTE]
