Yah, pretty much. I was about to say approximately the same thing;
I opted to quote, instead. </AOL-ME-TOO>
For my own example -- medieval-esque fantasy (i.e. squarely where most
D&D sits) is one of my favorite genre's. But I really dislike many of
D&D's features (cl*****/levels, HP, Vancian magic, Divine-vs-Arcane, &c).
So, I play "Ars Magica" for my medieval-esque fantasy. No, it's not a
"perfect" game - but it's much, MUCH better (by my standards), and so I
shutup and roll in ArM.
