>Story in tabletop games >People in camp a think they're basically as important as the story/plot in a porn and should be a complete afterthought, fuck you don't make us play your shitty novel
>People in camp b want original and interesting story and not boring garbage they've seen a million times
Is there any in between here?
Anthony Scott
of course: Normal human beings.

Carter Green
People in camp c: the players, not the GM, shape the plot. The GM provides a world, the players provide the stories.

>fuck you don't make us play your shitty novel
This desu
I came to play, not gay.

It's very important that you define 'shape' in this sort of statement.
Nathan Clark
Like a cube, or a pyramid, maybe a sphere if they're feeling randy.
Joseph Anderson
Why do you need in between? You already have all the decent people in camp B.
Michael Cooper
I don't know why anyone would play for mechanics alone when there are thousands of video games to play instead

>>People in camp a think they're basically as important as the story/plot in a porn and should be a complete afterthought, fuck you don't make us play your shitty novel This seems to indicate that focus in story means playing someone's shitty novel. That fucking bullshit. I want story, but I want to also tell it, and play it. I don't want to sit in table listening GM's shitty fantasy epic, I want to be part of telling our fantasy epic together.

Don't play with 40 year old grognards or millennial teens, problem solved.

>Is there any in between here?
As and there are much more than two camps to choose from. It's not a matter of either/or, up/down, one/zero.
Only sperglords are autistic enough reduce everything to a false binary choice. Don't play with sperglords, don't act like sperglords.

Make some IRL friends and quit playing with people on the internet. People on the internet are playing on the internet because they can't get a game/group anywhere else.
A thread died so you could post this autism.
Noah Nguyen
Hey, it could have been another 'stat me' thread.
Justin Cruz
So only play with 65-year-olds and small children?
Jaxon Scott
>nothing between 20 and 40 damn son.
Lincoln Taylor
>millennial teens Aren't very many of those left now.
Josiah Sanders
But those are millenials in there.
Elijah Peterson
Yeah but they stop being obnoxious and start being depressed, like the rest of the world.
fair
Eli Moore
You mean cattle?
Joshua Flores
I think that one of the best examples of humorous irony is this current trend where millennials don't know what the word means and keep calling other people millennials.
Leo Long
No.
