of course: Normal human beings.

People in camp c: the players, not the GM, shape the plot. The GM provides a world, the players provide the stories.

>fuck you don't make us play your shitty novel

This desu

I came to play, not gay.

It's very important that you define 'shape' in this sort of statement.

>>51705780
Like a cube, or a pyramid, maybe a sphere if they're feeling randy.

>>51705597
Why do you need in between? You already have all the decent people in camp B.

I don't know why anyone would play for mechanics alone when there are thousands of video games to play instead

>>51705597
>>People in camp a think they're basically as important as the story/plot in a porn and should be a complete afterthought, fuck you don't make us play your shitty novel
This seems to indicate that focus in story means playing someone's shitty novel.
That fucking bullshit. I want story, but I want to also tell it, and play it. I don't want to sit in table listening GM's shitty fantasy epic, I want to be part of telling our fantasy epic together.

Don't play with 40 year old grognards or millennial teens, problem solved.

>>51705597
>Is there any in between here?

As >>51705672 and >>51705729 there are much more than two camps to choose from. It's not a matter of either/or, up/down, one/zero.

Only sperglords are autistic enough reduce everything to a false binary choice. Don't play with sperglords, don't act like sperglords.

>>51705597
>Is there any in between here?

Make some IRL friends and quit playing with people on the internet. People on the internet are playing on the internet because they can't get a game/group anywhere else.

A thread died so you could post this autism.

>>51706058
Hey, it could have been another 'stat me' thread.

>>51705988
So only play with 65-year-olds and small children?

>>51706077
>nothing between 20 and 40
damn son.

>>51705988
>millennial teens
Aren't very many of those left now.

>>51706081
But those are millenials in there.

>>51706096
Yeah but they stop being obnoxious and start being depressed, like the rest of the world.

>>51706084
fair

>>51705672
You mean cattle?

>>51706084
I think that one of the best examples of humorous irony is this current trend where millennials don't know what the word means and keep calling other people millennials.

>>51705597
No.

There can be no peace until storygamer untermench scum are purged from the hobby.
