This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

So what is it, you want, from role-playing as an experience?

Shared immersion in a fantastic setting.

A bit of creative problem-solving.

Some laughs.

Quote from: GoOrangeAlso someone with a different skill set than me.

Oh yes, that's a good one.
"The difference between being fascinated with RPGs and being fascinated with the RPG industry is akin to the difference between being fascinated with sex and being fascinated with masturbation. Not that there\'s anything wrong with jerking off, but don\'t fool yourself into thinking you\'re getting laid." —Aos

I like people I play with. I want to share the fun with them. Because I usually GM I want to present them with fascinating stories and exciting discoveries, to let them do the stuff they want to do.

As a player I want to relief from everyday stress. I like a bit craziness in playing not just serious stuff. I am partially specialist in Robin Laws' sense, half of my characters are rogues, spies and such sneaky stuff. But the strong story is at least the same important for me.

And for the record - so-called narrativist games do not work for me.

I'll let you know after I've finished mulling it over and can put thoughts and feelings into something legible.  (i.e. Reserved)
