Fantastic. I have some amazing memories of early roleplaying experiences – the willingness to suspend disbelief was just so strong.
I’ve always thought that was one of the “unspoken” reasons people drop out of the hobby as they get older. It’s not just social pressure and lack of time, etc – it’s also a different attitude to the game itself which makes it less fun.
When you live a relatively controlled life, and the game is your only way to experience agency and have adventure, it packs a very different punch.
