Last night i was a bit drunk i got all philosophic about games, specially how rpgs affect us, i mean are we like other people ? we always have a dragon, an elf, swords and magic in our mind, others dont.
Do you people think rpgs make us more creative ? more violent ? less social ?..... you get the idea. Peronally i think they make us much more creative than the average folk. |

[quote=Leraje]Perhaps the game doesn't make you a whole lot more creative, but creative people flock to the game? Cause and effect.[/quote]
That's probably pretty true - it's mainly those who are more creative who enjoy RPGs since those with less creativity/imagination tend to stick with games that give instant enjoyment, and require less attention to storyline and lore. Those who don't have a lot of imagination don't tend to see the allure of a fantasy-styled world, which is the basis of most RPGs. -------------------- Chumbaniya Has Spoken!
