AD&D was such a world creation myth to immerse oneself in. Greyhawk and the Forgotten Realms. We fell out of it, my friends and I, in our twenties. But it has pulled us back in in our forties. Playing the original TSR modules with new characters. So much better than computer role playing games as the fun exists in the real tabletop experiences of people interacting with each other in meatspace. It demonstrates what has been lost in virtual space. Similarly to playing boardgames with real players around the table.
Humans are social creatures who belong in close physical proximity with other people. To interact, to feel free to belong, to be humans. Technology is a poor replacement for this.
