I Don't Think I Would Have Gotten Into Gaming If I Started Today27 Jul 202000:13:37

With all the negative thing in gaming these days I doubt the 10 year-old me would have considered joining tabletop rpgs. There was a social cost back in the day. But it was more of outsider who attacked us. Who didn't know anything about what we did. Today, we eat ourselves from the inside. Like a cancer. Bombarded by different groups on how they think things should be. 10 year-old me would have given tabletop rpgs a hard pass.
