Role Playing Games are Fun

Tweet

My beau and I have been role playing for a long time, as a matter of fact I personally have been role playing for about 12 years. It started with AD&D and then it moved to Vampire: The Masquerade, then slowly, as I grew up and found an appreciation for the classics I started playing Shadow Run and Cyber Punk and even oldies but goodies Mech Warrior. I miss the old games, they were so much fun, even if they were a little complicated. Now a days everything is either a die 20 system or a die 10 system so its pretty streamlined... Back in the day there were all kinds of crazy systems... You had to learn a new dice system for every freakin' game you played. Still, my current love is Exalted, its a white wolf game, so it has a lot of familiar concepts for me, plus it leaves so much room to actually fine tune and build a really creative interesting character. Of course, you always have to have a good group to play with. Ours is so/so. Its better then some, but worse then others' that I have been involved with. Anyway, even if you don't respond to this, I would suggest looking up role playing online. Its a great stress reliever, it really fun and its a good social interaction that doesn't include alcohol or drugs.
