Too much, I think, some days - I'd really like to just play again. Except for the occasional fizzles after 2 or 3 sessions friends run once a year or so I've been the GM for my various groups for... *does math* Erg. Wow. That's really creepy. Closing far too fast on 20 years. *twitches* Annd I'm being slightly unfair. There were two games in that time period that I didn't run that lasted for 15 or so sessions. Still creepy.
I've heard of "killer" games, but never played.
Tell me more of vampire tag?
Never actually played exalted, watched a few sessions once, and decided I wasn't that desperate to play. It was nearly the least fun I've had with sourcebooks. The least was a game called Villans and Vigilantes - it involved pi and multiplying decimals for character creation. Amusing. Some of the math was almost fun, but the system was mind-numbing.
I'll have to keep listening/reading. Even if I don't draw any new systems in the mix, I'm always looking for ideas on how to warp the ones I have, and just plain hungry for tales - from games, written, heard, sung... Meh. Just sort of an obsession, I guess.
I understand the addiction part. I wander the edge with EQ, and I'm guessing that's part of the reason I flicker in and out of game. That and it's just not as much fun when I can't access the people I can actually roleplay with. The characters are real in my head, and if I can't have them live and act occasionally within that setting, it drives me a little nuts.
