Sometimes I wonder, is "Campaign Play" a synonym for "it takes a really long time for anything to happen"?
I don't necessarily mean that pejoratively. I'm thinking about that sort of meander-y, social, relaxed play that I still associate with long Sunday afternoons gaming. The style of play where anticipation is a big part of the payoff, and where it takes a while for characters to change either because not much is happening, or because so much is happening that they don't get very much screen time.
For me, that game is Ars Magica...
