You know how when you're cold and hungry and you stub your toe, it's hard to be philosophical about it? You only stubbed your toe, no biggie, but it's painful all out of proportion, because you're cold and hungry? I think that most outrage about things to do with roleplaying comes from people being the equivalent of cold and hungry. A game design with stupid holes and inconsistencies is just a poor game design, but if you have a group of friends who'll take that design and turn it into an occasion for social bullying, THAT'S when it hurts. ...And, even if you don't stub your toe, you're still cold and hungry. The best game design in the world won't make you feel any better if your friends are bullies. |
