This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: TallTony;1062167Not sure if I'm in the right thread here, and my apologies to you all if I'm not, BUT I've rediscovered my love for RPGs (I started playing in the late 70s/ early 80s) but have also discovered Neverwinter MMORPG through my PlayStation 4 console. I enjoy playing both BUT they are vastly different.

The MMO is simply one's character bashing monsters and acquiring things and increasing one's level, not solving puzzles or properly exploring regions, it's a rather limited game which (have you noticed the increasing number pumpkins in the Protector's Enclave?), like Skyrim et al, one can tire of quite easily. The MMO is a place for Hasbro to generate revenue from the players. Sadly...


The RPG on the other hand considerably grabs my attention - the social interaction with other humans, the unpredictable nature of PCs and how a game can truly create an interesting fun story etc etc. Anyway just my pennies worth to this thread.
