Hi Chummers,

We've recently moved (Note: update the location box of profile) and managed to join a Pathfinder session that was just starting. (As a bit of background, I've GM'd Pathfinder for ~ 7 years and Shadowrun since I've been posting.)

Now, I know my time spent running as cat-herder has coloured my perceptions, and I liked the people and yes, even the gameworld we're kicking about in, but we (my lovely wife and I) don't really like his gamestyle.

He is a reasonable GM, but he's sort of running it like a White-Wolf/Storyteller game. This really wasn't what we were after and if I was trying to roleplay Settlers of Catarn, I'd have made it a bit more explicit in the introductory notes.

I also appreciate that he's trying to build a rich game world through player interaction, but after 2 hours the bard hadn't rolled a die. Even though she'd been roleplaying non-stop with the other players and interacting heavily with npcs.

What's a nice way to say, "We like your table, but not how you run it?"


Regards,

-Tir
