    Default Re: What do you get out of RPGs?

    Stories and a feeling of adventure and contentment.

    The rest is what I do and what I have when I do it.

    Default Re: What do you get out of RPGs?

    Probably a few things. One is coming up with stories, or rather coming up with something interesting alongside the other people at the table. Another is successfully designing a situation where people can interact with the scenario, either through NPCs or through the environment, and be entertained.

    However, I probably get the most out of just socializing and having fun with others. Sometimes silly, sometimes serious; sometimes involved, sometimes just hanging out.
