I'm kinda curious, how many people play RPGs with map and minatures at the centre? We started with D&D and minatures, but quickly migrated away to more free-form systems and styles. For us it was always about making a story together, and nothing bogs that down faster than technicality.
If your game is centered around maps and minatures, is it also centered around combat? Just curious to find out how other people play.
- YakiSauce 3y agoThats a really interesting question. When I first started playing DnD the thing I loved the most was the combat. Loved the mechanics and loved that it was basically a big complex board game. Over time, I have started moving more towards the shared storytelling aspects of the game. Currently in our game, we do a light combat mix, where we only really enter combat once every 3 or 4 sessions. Generally, it's nice that there are so many different RPG systems out there now so people can really find the ones that fit what they like.
- breakfastduck 3y agoLots of people play D&D entirely for combat. I don't get it personally, but yeah.

- bythreads 3y agoSame here, As i grew older the "theater sports" of it became infinitely more interesting - to such a degree that the dices are only used for randomness these days. We sometime play "dogma" scenarios where you are: a geriatric near 1st lvl , a 12 year old 1st lvl thief etc. but i'm getting old so these days its a social happening and not an all out drinking slugfest
