From recent threads I started to think of the different life lessons that each RPG system teaches people. Here is a short list:
Shadowrun: Fight the man, but only if you can make money doing it. D&D: Killing people and taking their stuff makes me a better person. Cthulhu: Life is cheap, so why try. Your just going to die anyway. Battletech: My part in society may be small, but every once and a while I can be a God in my own domain. Star Wars: Powerless heroes can defeat an all powerful and evil Empire. Munchkin: Cheat when you can (cause if you don't someone else will). |
