Comments: In which I descibe a gaming mid-life crisis

Gaming is about having fun, not meeting some arbitrary standard of coolness, so play what you are enjoying and don't feel any need to apologize for it!

Interesting that you are running a D&D 4E campaign in parallel with Descent - the two seem to overlap a bit! A good future post would be a compare/contrast on the dynamic and feel of the two.

Good to have you back.

Sadly, you seem to have been possessed!

I never, ever want to hear that Ameritrasher word again.

Seriously, I don't know why you would play Descent when you have D&D as an option. Isn't the latter streets ahead?

Anye: I agree completely!

Chris and Mike: You guys reminded me that I have a partially written post comparing Descent and D&D 4e that I started a few months ago. I will dust it off, finish it and post it next.

Ed an I are playing with two different groups, although some of the other D&D players are playing their own Descent campaign. Right now, I'm actually enjoying Descent a little better. I'll elaborate more in my post.

As to "Ameritrasher," help! Give me a better term. Although, I think that it's a lost cause as it seems to be in widespread use now. Actually, I'd just as soon lump all the games under the term "hobby games."

You've been seduced by the Barnesites and taken our glorious leader Chapel with you!? I knew Joey was wavering in his devotion, but CHAPEL? Who will DW have to bitch about now?

DW doesn't seem to ever have a problem finding things/people to bitch about! :)
