I've enjoyed the couple of play-by-post games here on Dumpshock. Neither of them lasted too long, but as long as you know that going in, then its not so bad. You don't have to schedule a block of time like a real-time game. If you get an active GM and at least one other active player, then you can carry a game for quite some time before the GM decides its not worth his time anymore.
One of the appeals to play-by-post games is you can get your character's style the way you envision it, as you have more time to compose. In a real-time game, online or at the table, you normally have to react a lot faster and sometimes traits in your original character design get lost because you are reacting quickly. |
