When I was a player in 3E/PF games, I could be pretty bad, since I usually remembered rules better than other players or sometimes the DM.Dennis Laffeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03053699552003336733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8935997561931650289.post-87377338317368373502013-12-26T17:12:31.753-05:002013-12-26T17:12:31.753-05:00i am a horrible player - most of my 30 years of ga...i am a horrible player - most of my 30 years of gaming i was GM. Playing more of late. In DND seems less of a problem even played some dragonlance and was enjoyable but one player confused my playing a spoiled petulent wizard as personal when he bought a slave I had arranged to by and I was bitchy - other players told him i was playing a jerk and was ok. In a espionage-cthulhu game I got the name murder face as I would kill anyone to beat mythos. Started a so called dark age vampire game and my questions about history offended all other players as nitpicking (nitpicking vampires and world of darkness apparently acceptable). Possibly these problems are cultural - i came from a historic wargame/SCA/uni club background where as many in my current club not tertiary educated or well read in history or interested in this aspect of gaming. They like inter character dialogue over goal oriented play which I find egoistic. Ive had these guys almost wipe out the party on first meeting because of this play style and sometimes achieve nothing. Im trying to adjust to style anyway. I freely admit I can be a horrible player. Best GM I had kept me busy with paranoid conjecture so i didn't need to make trouble. I will persist and am learning to be nicer.
