The fact that most of the games have devolved into the simplicity of swinging a club or nuking the shite out of everything doesn't mean there aren't tons of alternate solutions out there. If being skilled in something other than blowing the crap out of everything was important then people besides the roleplayers would do it.
The games are currently designed to make everything explode...thats the game. If you change the content then a change in the characters is viable. |
All those ideas seem pretty boring. I want to build up and spend time on my character so he can swim better or climb better? Naaah.
