'I find it hard to get into tabletop RPGs. Especially since I discovered and identified exactly the sort of high-immersion, character-driven adrenaline-junkie all-IC-all-the-time LARPing that really hits the spot for me, I've been wondering if the style simply... wasn't for me. A nice way to spend an evening, but on a par with "staying in and chilling out with a good book and a beer", rather than "sprinting full tilt through the forest with six rounds left in your shotgun and the stone-cold conviction that you're going to run out of ammo before the cultists run out of knives".'

...discuss, I guess. I've often felt the same way. I wonder if it makes working in the game industry trickier, or easier.

I will often enjoy a really good tabletop game, but not *much* more than I'll enjoy a good book and a beer.
